use the NEXT frame, and its register unwind method, to determine
the frame ID of THIS frame.
A frame ID provides an invariant that can be used to re-identify an
instance of a frame. It is a combination of the frame's `base' and
the frame's function's code address.
Traditionally, THIS frame's ID was determined by examining THIS
frame's function's prologue, and identifying the register/offset
used as THIS frame's base.
Example: An examination of THIS frame's prologue reveals that, on
entry, it saves the PC(+12), SP(+8), and R1(+4) registers
(decrementing the SP by 12). Consequently, the frame ID's base can
be determined by adding 12 to the THIS frame's stack-pointer, and
the value of THIS frame's SP can be obtained by unwinding the NEXT
frame's SP.
THIS_PROLOGUE_CACHE can be used to share any prolog analysis data
with the other unwind methods. Memory for that cache should be
allocated using FRAME_OBSTACK_ZALLOC(). */

/* Assuming the frame chain: (outer) prev <-> this <-> next (inner);
use the NEXT frame, and its register unwind method, to unwind THIS
frame's registers (returning the value of the specified register
REGNUM in the previous frame).
Traditionally, THIS frame's registers were unwound by examining
THIS frame's function's prologue and identifying which registers
that prolog code saved on the stack.
Example: An examination of THIS frame's prologue reveals that, on
entry, it saves the PC(+12), SP(+8), and R1(+4) registers
(decrementing the SP by 12). Consequently, the value of the PC
register in the previous frame is found in memory at SP+12, and
THIS frame's SP can be obtained by unwinding the NEXT frame's SP.
Why not pass in THIS_FRAME? By passing in NEXT frame and THIS
cache, the supplied parameters are consistent with the sibling
function THIS_ID.
Can the code call ``frame_register (get_prev_frame (NEXT_FRAME))''?
Won't the call frame_register (THIS_FRAME) be faster? Well,
ignoring the possability that the previous frame does not yet
exist, the ``frame_register (FRAME)'' function is expanded to
``frame_register_unwind (get_next_frame (FRAME)'' and hence that
call will expand to ``frame_register_unwind (get_next_frame
(get_prev_frame (NEXT_FRAME)))''. Might as well call
``frame_register_unwind (NEXT_FRAME)'' directly.
THIS_PROLOGUE_CACHE can be used to share any prolog analysis data
