The dwarf_frame_register args changed with [1],
Updating ops_mem accordingly.

[1] https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=commit;h=5621fe5443da23112170235dd5cac161e5c75e65
The warning (new with GCC11) and the fix are correct.
I'm taking this as an Acked-by, ok?

The code probably worked fine before because the next var on the stack
was the dummy Dwarf_Op which would have been as if the ops_mem[2] was
actually ops_mem[3] already. You don't need the dummy var now and
Dwarf_Op *ops doesn't need to be initialized (the dwarf_frame_register
will initialize it).

Note that [1] didn't change the args of the dwarf_frame_register, but
did fix a similar bug in one of the elfutils own tests (and updated
the comment on the function to hopefully be more clear).

Cheers,

Mark
