A Clang-built kernel is showing the following warning: arch/x86/kernel/platform-quirks.o: warning: objtool: x86_early_init_platform_quirks()+0x84: unreachable instruction That corresponds to this code: 7e: 0f 85 00 00 00 00 jne 84 <x86_early_init_platform_quirks+0x84> 80: R_X86_64_PC32 __x86_indirect_thunk_r11-0x4 84: c3 retq This is a conditional retpoline sibling call, which is now possible thanks to retpolines. Objtool hasn't seen that before. It's incorrectly interpreting the conditional jump as an unconditional dynamic jump.
