fgraph: Give ret_stack its own kmem cache

Browse source

The ret_stack (shadow stack used by function graph infrastructure) is
created for every task on the system when function graph is enabled. Give
it its own kmem_cache. This will make it easier to see how much memory is
being used specifically for function graph shadow stacks.

In the future, this size may change and may not be a power of two. Having
its own cache can also keep it from fragmenting memory.
