Hendrik Brueckner bc3703f21c s390/kernel: emit CFI data in .debug_frame and discard .eh_frame sections
Using perf probe and libdw on kernel modules failed to find CFI
data for symbols.  The CFI data is stored in the .eh_frame section.
The elfutils libdw is not able to extract the CFI data correctly,
because the .eh_frame section requires "non-simple" relocations
for kernel modules.

The suggestion is to avoid these "non-simple" relocations by emitting
the CFI data in the .debug_frame section.  Let gcc emit respective
directives by specifying the -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables option.

Using the .debug_frame section for CFI data, the .eh_frame section
becomes unused and, thus, discard it for kernel and modules builds

The vDSO requires the .eh_frame section and, hence, emit the CFI data
in both, the .eh_frame and .debug_frame sections.
