Thanks. I haven't test NO_LIBUNWIND_DEBUG_FRAME=1 case.

I found that it is possible to utilize map->dso->adjust_symbols for this propose so
we don't need to introduce another function to check ehdr.e_type. However
map->dso->adjust_symbols checks not only ET_EXEC but also ET_REL. What do you think?

I'd like to check it and post another patch.
