arc_unwind_core() is entry point into the actual dwarf unwinder and it
gets called by various kernel APIs which provide the unwinding context
(e.g. current task vs. a specific task, current pt_regs vs. some other
crash context's pt_regs...)

Currently multiple const propagated clones of arc_unwind_core() are
generated, which seems superfluous. The only performance critical call
is for perf callgrap unwinding, which being in a different compilation
unit, uses ths vanilla, non cp version anyways.

So prevent the clone functions generation
