When the conversion was made to remove stop machine and use the breakpoint
logic instead, the modification of the function graph caller is still
done directly as though it was being done under stop machine.
As it is not converted via stop machine anymore, there is a possibility
that the code could be layed across cache lines and if another CPU is
accessing that function graph call when it is being updated, it could
cause a General Protection Fault.
Convert the update of the function graph caller to use the breakpoint
method as well.
