Peter Zijlstra d139bca4b8 objtool: Fix IBT tail-call detection
Objtool reports:

  arch/x86/crypto/poly1305-x86_64.o: warning: objtool: poly1305_blocks_avx() falls through to next function poly1305_blocks_x86_64()
  arch/x86/crypto/poly1305-x86_64.o: warning: objtool: poly1305_emit_avx() falls through to next function poly1305_emit_x86_64()
  arch/x86/crypto/poly1305-x86_64.o: warning: objtool: poly1305_blocks_avx2() falls through to next function poly1305_blocks_x86_64()

Which reads like:

0000000000000040 <poly1305_blocks_x86_64>:
	 40:       f3 0f 1e fa             endbr64
	...

0000000000000400 <poly1305_blocks_avx>:
	400:       f3 0f 1e fa             endbr64
	404:       44 8b 47 14             mov    0x14(%rdi),%r8d
	408:       48 81 fa 80 00 00 00    cmp    $0x80,%rdx
	40f:       73 09                   jae    41a <poly1305_blocks_avx+0x1a>
	411:       45 85 c0                test   %r8d,%r8d
	414:       0f 84 2a fc ff ff       je     44 <poly1305_blocks_x86_64+0x4>
	...

These are simple conditional tail-calls and *should* be recognised as
such by objtool, however due to a mistake in commit 08f87a93c8
("objtool: Validate IBT assumptions") this is failing.

Specifically, the jump_dest is +4, this means the instruction pointed
at will not be ENDBR and as such it will fail the second clause of
is_first_func_insn() that was supposed to capture this exact case.

Instead, have is_first_func_insn() look at the previous instruction.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
