The above log is from "20180227-firmware-cache" kernel plus your suggested
change that makes it always upload the firmware:

Huh, if you are using 20180227-firmware-cache, then your diff should instead
be this no?

Right, yes. I just copied the diff from your email instead of git diff.
I recompiled the kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y, but the messages in
journalctl look pretty much the same as before. There are still question
marks in the call traces, there are no line numbers, and it still says
"verbose debug info unavailable". /proc/config.gz contains
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y. What else do I need to do?
Hrm, odd.
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y
Maybe.
That doesn't exist in /proc/config.gz, not even commented out. I used
SymSearch in 'make nconfig', and it finds "FRAME_POINTER":
Symbol: FRAME_POINTER [=n]
Type : bool
Prompt: Compile the kernel with frame pointers
Location:
-> Kernel hacking
-> Compile-time checks and compiler options
But when I go to that location, there is no such prompt.
I don't know what's going on here.
But if the patches I posted help, I guess we already have a solution, The rest of
these email exchanges are all just hypothetical exercises.
Your patches definitely fix the problem I reported in my initial email.
Ah OK :)
