When I wrote that I was under the impression that the different
unwinders computed the CFA differently.

If that is incorrect, and recent discussion indicates that it is, then I
think it is fine to drop this check.

Actually, the whole purpose of frame_unwinder_is and dwarf2_frame_cfa is
just to do this check.  All that stuff could be removed.
