   .eh_frame section.  Simple information for a function with no
   exceptions looks like this:

   The immediate issue we can address in the assembler is the
   DW_CFA_advance_loc4 followed by a four byte value.  The value is
   the difference of two addresses in the function.  Since gcc does
   not know this value, it always uses four bytes.  We will know the
   value at the end of assembly, so we can do better.  */
