Oops, obviously all of that happened before my morning coffee ;-)

Makefile has:

    ifdef CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
    KBUILD_CFLAGS   += -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fno-optimize-sibling-calls
    KBUILD_RUSTFLAGS += -Cforce-frame-pointers=y
    else
    # Some targets (ARM with Thumb2, for example), can't be built with frame
    # pointers.  For those, we don't have FUNCTION_TRACER automatically
    # select FRAME_POINTER.  However, FUNCTION_TRACER adds -pg, and this is
    # incompatible with -fomit-frame-pointer with current GCC, so we don't use
    # -fomit-frame-pointer with FUNCTION_TRACER.
    # In the Rust target specification, "frame-pointer" is set explicitly
    # to "may-omit".
    ifndef CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER
    KBUILD_CFLAGS   += -fomit-frame-pointer
    endif
    endif

Your config probably has CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER set?

    arch/sh/Kconfig.debug=config DWARF_UNWINDER
    arch/sh/Kconfig.debug-  bool "Enable the DWARF unwinder for stacktraces"
    arch/sh/Kconfig.debug-  depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
    arch/sh/Kconfig.debug:  select FRAME_POINTER

You should make sure that cannot happen when CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER
is enabled. I.e. make DWARF_UNWINDER depend on !FUNCTION_TRACER?

Other architectures do something similar:

    arch/sparc/Kconfig.debug:config FRAME_POINTER
    arch/sparc/Kconfig.debug-       bool
    arch/sparc/Kconfig.debug-       depends on MCOUNT

    arch/x86/Kconfig.debug:config FRAME_POINTER
    arch/x86/Kconfig.debug- depends on !UNWINDER_ORC && !UNWINDER_GUESS
    arch/x86/Kconfig.debug- bool

Probably you need to adjust the following, too:

    lib/Kconfig.debug:config FRAME_POINTER
    lib/Kconfig.debug-      bool "Compile the kernel with frame pointers"
    lib/Kconfig.debug-      depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && (M68K || UML ||
SUPERH) || ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS
    lib/Kconfig.debug-      default y if (DEBUG_INFO && UML) ||
ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS

i.e. drop SUPERH from the list above, and select ARCH_WANT_FRAME_POINTERS
if !FUNCTION_TRACER.
