The FTRACE_UPDATE_MODIFY_CALL is the case where we switch from calling
one trampoline to calling another. As you can plainly see from this
switch statement, we treat it the same as converting to a nop. That's
the bug we are trying to fix. It shouldn't be treated as a nop. It
should be treated as a call to the old or new function. Either is fine,
but it must be one or the other, not a nop.
