Any reason why arch/um/Kconfig.x86 has X86_32 but not
X86_64? That's resulting in asm/dwarf2.h producing the 32-bit
(pushl_cfi & Co) macros instead of the 64-bit ones. And I
wonder what other inconsistencies this may cause...

If this is on purpose (i.e. simply adding X86_64 as a new config
option there isn't the right solution), what would be the preferred
way of fixing this in asm/dwarf2.h:
- #ifndef CONFIG_X86_32,
- #ifdef CONFIG_64BIT,
- yet something else?

Thanks, Jan
