Pull objtool updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Improve retpoline code patching by separating it from alternatives
which reduces memory footprint and allows to do better optimizations
in the actual runtime patching.
- Add proper retpoline support for x86/BPF
- Address noinstr warnings in x86/kvm, lockdep and paravirtualization
code
- Add support to handle pv_opsindirect calls in the noinstr analysis
- Classify symbols upfront and cache the result to avoid redundant
str*cmp() invocations.
- Add a CFI hash to reduce memory consumption which also reduces
runtime on a allyesconfig by ~50%
- Adjust XEN code to make objtool handling more robust and as a side
effect to prevent text fragmentation due to placement of the
hypercall page.
