According to the discussion on the mailing list, this version adds a new patch to force select FRAME_POINTER for ARM64.
Change v2 --> v1: 1. Adds a new patch to force select FRAME_POINTER 2. Notes that this change adds a dependency on DEBUG_KERNEL for building with frame pointers
Yang Shi (2): arm64: remove redundant FRAME_POINTER kconfig option arm64: force to select FRAME_POINTER

FRAME_POINTER is defined in lib/Kconfig.debug, it is unnecessary to redefine it in arch/arm64/Kconfig.debug. Actually, the one defined in arm64 directory is never used. This adds a dependency on DEBUG_KERNEL for building with frame pointers.

ARM64 depends on frame pointer to get correct stack backtrace and need FRAME_POINTER kconfig option enabled all the time. However, currect implementation makes it could be disabled, so force it to be selected by ARM64.

Do you really need two patches for this?

I just thought it may be clearer in this way. If nobody thinks it is necessary, I definitely could merge them into one.
Thanks, Yang

Please merge them into one.
