Thunk functions are callable non-leaf functions that don't honor CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, which can result in bad stack traces. Also they aren't annotated as ELF callable functions which can confuse tooling.
Create stack frames for them when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled and add the ELF function type.
