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.
