[PATCH v4 2/4] unwind_user/fp: Use dummies instead of ifdef

Subsystem:
the rest, userspace stack unwinding, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit), x86 stack unwinding · Maintainers:

This simplifies the code. unwind_user_next_fp() does not need to
return -EINVAL if config option HAVE_UNWIND_USER_FP is disabled, as
unwind_user_start() will then not select this unwind method and
unwind_user_next() will therefore not call it.
Provide (1) a dummy definition of ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_FRAME, if the unwind
user method HAVE_UNWIND_USER_FP is not enabled, (2) a common fallback
definition of unwind_user_at_function_start() which returns false, and
(3) a common dummy definition of ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_ENTRY_FRAME.
Note that enabling the config option HAVE_UNWIND_USER_FP without
defining ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_FRAME triggers a compile error, which is
helpful when implementing support for this unwind user method in an
architecture. Enabling the config option when providing an arch-
specific unwind_user_at_function_start() definition makes it necessary
to also provide an arch-specific ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_ENTRY_FRAME
definition.

Notes (jremus):
Changes in v3:
- Remove comment on #endif. (Ingo)
Changes in v2:
- Add parameter ws to ARCH_INIT_USER_{FP_FRAME|FP_ENTRY_FRAME}.
- Provide common fallback of unwind_user_at_function_start().
- Provide common dummy of ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_ENTRY_FRAME.
- Reword commit message accordingly.
