[Bug debug/23551] New: dwarf records for inlines appear incomplete

[graydon at redhat dot com]

It appears that inlined_subroutine dwarf records are not always generated for
inlined functions, and when they are generated the formal_parameter records of
the inlined_subroutine do not always have location records.

I have prepared 6 files (2 per case) demonstrating 3 different minimal cases. In
each case, the .i file is the input and the .dump file is the result of running
eu-readelf --debug-dump a.out.

The three cases are:

 - formal-parameter-but-no-location: this has an inlined_subroutine record with 
   no location attribute on the formal_parameter. the missing attribute should
   appear around line 77 of the dump.

 - no-inlined-subroutine-record: this shows that inlined_subroutines
   are not always generated. the missing record should appear around 
   line 54 of the dump.

 - constant-formal-parameter-with-location.dump: this has a record in the form
   I would expect to see in the previous 2 cases: lines 65-77 of the dump show
   both the inlined_subroutine and formal_parameter with a location attribute.

Please let me know if you need more details.
