Also, Jens pointed out that checking for '-Wa,--gsframe' isn't
sufficient, as it still succeeds for architectures that aren't yet
supported:
https://lore.kernel.org/b89bcb68-d010-4041-aacf-15b934675705@linux.ibm.com
so in my patches I have:
config AS_SFRAME
def_bool $(as-instr,.cfi_sections .sframe\n.cfi_startproc\n.cfi_endproc)
Though I'm not sure how you would add an SFrame version check to that.
