Linus Torvalds 43aa0a195f objtool updates:
- 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.
