[RFC PATCH] ARM: debug: Add prompt for FRAME_POINTER to Kconfig.debug

[Gregory Fong]

Without a prompt string, it is impossible to disable FRAME_POINTER on
ARM. It will simply set the default value anytime you run 'make'.

To reproduce the original issue, run:
  make multi_v7_defconfig
  scripts/config -d ARM_UNWIND
  make oldconfig
  # check .config, note that FRAME_POINTER=y
  scripts/config -d FRAME_POINTER
  make oldconfig
  # check .config, note that FRAME_POINTER is still y
