Subject: [PATCH v11 14/15] unwind_user/sframe: Add .sframe validation option
From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@...nel.org>
Add a debug feature to validate all .sframe sections when first loading
the file rather than on demand.
[ Jens Remus: Add support for PC-relative FDE function start address. ]

+ When adding an .sframe section for a task, validate the entire
+ section immediately rather than on demand.
+
+ This is a debug feature which is helpful for rooting out .sframe
+ section issues. If the .sframe section is corrupt, it will fail to
+ load immediately, with more information provided in dynamic printks.
+
+ This has a significant page cache footprint due to its reading of the
+ entire .sframe section for every loaded executable and shared
+ library. Also, it's done for all processes, even those which don't
+ get stack traced by the kernel. Not recommended for general use.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
