	* dwarf2loc.c (dwarf_expr_frame_base): Use SYMBOL_OPS instead of
	SYMBOL_LOCATION_FUNCS
	(dwarf2_loclist_funcs, dwarf2_locexpr_funcs): Change type to
	"struct symbol_ops".
	* dwarf2loc.h (dwarf2_locexpr_funcs, dwarf2_loclist_funcs): Change
	type to "struct symbol_ops".
	* symtab.h (struct symbol_ops): Rename "struct location_funcs".
	(struct symbol): Replace ".aux_value.loc.funcs" and
	".aux_value.loc.baton" with ".ops" and ".aux_value.ptr".
	(SYMBOL_OBJFILE): Delete macro.
	(SYMBOL_LOCATION_FUNCS): Delete macro.
	(SYMBOL_LOCATION_BATON): Update.
	* dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_symbol_mark_computed): Set SYMBOL_OPS
	intead of SYMBOL_LOCATION_FUNCS.
	* ax-gdb.c (gen_var_ref): Ditto.
	* printcmd.c (address_info): Ditto.
	* findvar.c (read_var_value): Ditto.
	(symbol_read_needs_frame): Ditto.
