[PATCH v3 5/5] Makefile.debug: set -g unconditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT

From: Nick Desaulniers
Date: Wed Sep 07 2022 - 01:00:03 EST


Dmitrii, Fangrui, and Mashahiro note:

Before GCC 11 and Clang 12 -gsplit-dwarf implicitly uses -g2.

Fix CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT for gcc-11+ & clang-12+ which now need -g
specified in order for -gsplit-dwarf to work at all.

-gsplit-dwarf has been mutually exclusive with -g since support for
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT was introduced in
commit 866ced950bcd ("kbuild: Support split debug info v4")
I don't think it ever needed to be.
