functions to their call sites using DW_AT_call_line.

- End user programmer did not write these inline functions. They are supplied by GCC.
- End user programmer does not see them as inline functions. G
- Consumer of this info, CHUD tools, does not know that this is supplied by GCC and not by end user programmer.

Since, GCC is supplying these intrinsics, it should supply them in such a way that they are not represented as small functions. Note that, these headers already uses inlining related attributes (and not leave it on end user to set appropriate optimization flags) to accomplish this in some sense.
