    265    The DWARF 3.0 spec says that the default initial states of all registers
    266    are "undefined", unless otherwise specified by the machine/compiler ABI.
    267 
    268    This default is wrong for every machine with the CFI generated by GCC.
    269    The EH unwinder does not really distinguish "same_value" and "undefined",
    270    since it doesn't matter for unwinding (in either case there is no change
    271    to make for that register).  GCC generates CFI that says nothing at all
    272    about registers it hasn't spilled somewhere.  For our unwinder to give
    273    the true story, the backend must supply an initial state that uses
    274    "same_value" rules for all the callee-saves registers.
    275 
    276    This can fill in the initial_instructions, initial_instructions_end
    277    members of *ABI_INFO to point at a CFI instruction stream to process
    278    before each CIE's initial instructions.  It should set the
    279    data_alignment_factor member if it affects the initial instructions.
    280 
    281    As a shorthand for some common cases, for this instruction stream
    282    we overload some CFI instructions that cannot be used in a CIE:
    283 
    284 	DW_CFA_restore		-- Change default rule for all unmentioned
    285 				   registers from undefined to same_value.
    286 
    287    This function can also fill in ABI_INFO->return_address_register with the
    288    DWARF register number that identifies the actual PC in machine state.
    289    If there is no canonical DWARF register number with that meaning, it's
    290    left unchanged (callers usually initialize with (Dwarf_Word) -1).
    291    This value is not used by CFI per se.  */
