Currently, pahole relies on DWARF to find whether a particular func
has its parameter mismatched with standard or optimized away.
In both these cases, the func will not be put in BTF and this
will prevent fentry/fexit tracing for these functions.
The current parameter checking focuses on the first location/expression
to match intended parameter register. But in some cases, the first
location/expression does not have expected matching information,
but further location like DW_OP_[GNU_]entry_value can provide
information which matches the expected parameter register.
Patch 1 supports this; patch 2 adds locking around dwarf_getlocation*
as it is unsafe in a multithreaded environment.

dwarf_loader: use libdw__lock for dwarf_getlocation(s)
Eduard Zingerman (1):
dwarf_loader: Check DW_OP_[GNU_]entry_value for possible parameter
matching
