I love people saying "I have a (one) problem." :-).

The origin was Debian kernel-team enabled BTF-debuginfo Kconfig.

My main focus is to be as close to Debian's kernel-config and if this
works well with (experimental) Linux DWARF v5 support I am a happy
guy.

Do you want Nick's DWARF v5 patch-series as a base?
Thinking of DWARF-v4?
Use Nick's patchset or DWARF-v4 what is in Linux upstream means Linux
v5.11-rc4+?
What Git tree to use - Linus or one of your BPF/BTF folks?

What version of pahole (latest Git) etc.?
