Here is what compiler generates when there are thumb functions to handle:
        .thumb_func
        .type func, %function
func:
.LFB0:

func is marked as thumb function and thus this func pointer will have the 
lower bit set. While .LFB0: non thumb label will be used to mark function
start address. Like this:         .4byte .LFB0 @ DW_AT_low_pc
