x86/ftrace, x86/asm: Kill ftrace_caller_end label

One of ftrace_caller_end and ftrace_return is redundant so unify them.
Rename ftrace_return to ftrace_epilogue to mean that everything after
that label represents, like an afterword, work which happens *after* the
ftrace call, e.g., the function graph tracer for one.

Steve wants this to rather mean "[a]n event which reflects meaningfully
on a recently ended conflict or struggle." I can imagine that ftrace can
be a struggle sometimes.

Anyway, beef up the comment about the code contents and layout before
ftrace_epilogue label.
