x86-32, ftrace: Fix static ftrace when early microcode is enabled
Early microcode loading runs C code before paging is enabled on 32 bits. Since ftrace puts a hook into every function, that hook needs to be safe to execute in the pre-paging environment. This is currently true for dynamic ftrace but not for static ftrace. Static ftrace is obsolescent and assumed to not be performance-critical, so we can simply test that the stack pointer falls within the valid range of kernel addresses.
