Re: [PATCH v1] LoongArch: Use less DW_LNS_fixed_advance_pc

This patch, previously reviewed and revised based on feedback, optimizes the generation of debugging information for LoongArch by judiciously using DW_LNS_fixed_advance_pc. The author inquires if the patch can now be merged, and the maintainer confirms it can be applied.
