... and remove -fno-optimize-sibling-calls?:

Makefile:
ifdef CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
KBUILD_CFLAGS   += -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fno-optimize-sibling-calls
else
KBUILD_CFLAGS   += -fomit-frame-pointer
endif

--- maybe it could be better to remove it, instead of some inlining that I 
made. Or do you see a situation when for debugging purpose, user would 
want -fno-optimize-sibling-calls?
