Why are we following Debian patches in a package with active upstream?
I am afraid no, we need to rebase them (0.176) to 0.177
The part about rebasing existing patches is clear.

But why are we for example adding mips_cfi.patch when this is not upstream?
There might be a good reason for doing so, but "because it is a Debian patch"
is not a good reason.

And the existing hppa/hurd/kfreebsd patches from Debian are unlikely to
make sense in OE.

I just integrate debian patches as a whole, if you are familiar with elfutils and

make sure some of them does not make sense, modification on them is welcome
