ARM: 6312/1: ftrace: allow building without frame pointers
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
With current gcc, compiling with both -pg and -fomit-frame-pointer is
not allowed.  However, -pg can be used to build without actually
specifying -fno-omit-frame-pointer, upon which the default behaviour
for the target will be used.

On ARM, it is not possible to build a Thumb-2 kernel with
-fno-omit-frame-pointer (FRAME_POINTERS depends on !THUMB2_KERNEL). In
order to support ftrace for Thumb-2, we need to be able to allow a
combination of FUNCTION_TRACER and !FRAME_POINTER.  We do this by
omitting -fomit-frame-pointer if ftrace is enabled.
