It looks like this depends on having a frame pointer? In that case, shouldn't
we add some Kconfig logic to make CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS select
-fno-omit-frame-pointer? Frame pointers aren't enabled by default on RISC-V
and therefor are unlikely to exist at all.

Should that also be mandated by a Kconfig?

What is "-mbacktrace"? I don't remember that ever being a RISC-V GCC option,
and my compiler doesn't undersand it. It understands "-fbacktrace" but that
doesn't produce a frame pointer.
