This has been started, but is stalled due to binutils/gcc issues.

- move 64bit signal trampolines into vsyscall code and add dwarf2 for it.
First part of it has been done. Just need to add the dwarf2. Also requires the previous item.
Quoted 3 lines
- describe kernel assembly with dwarf2 annotations for kgdb (currently waiting on some binutils changes for this)
binutils patch for it exists now, still need to get the hands dirty on it.
But all hasn't been merged yet because Linus drops patches recently :-(
