sh: Setup the frame register in asm code
In order to use DWARF unwinder info the frame register has to contain a valid value. Whilst GCC takes care of this for C code, we have to do it ourselves for assembly. Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt@console-pimps.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
