[PATCH v2 0/2] gas: sframe: Fix for flexible FDE and new test

Jens Remus presents version 2 of a patch series for gas’s SFrame implementation. The first patch addresses issues with generating SFrame when a target supports flexible FDE, and the second patch introduces a new test case to verify a fix for dangling pointers in sframe_xlate_ctx_cleanup. The changes aim to improve correctness and robustness in exception frame handling.
