[PATCH v2 8/9] ARM: call_with_stack: add unwind support

Restructure the code and add the unwind annotations so that both the
frame pointer unwinder as well as the ELF unwind info based unwinder
will be able to follow the call stack through call_with_stack().
Note that the former cannot support GCC and Clang at the same time, as
they use a different idiom for the prologue/epilogue. So the code uses
the GCC idiom, adding full frame pointer based unwind support for GCC
while preserving the existing behavior of the Clang version, which
simply omits call_with_stack() from its call stack.
