I'm still dusting the code off, but this fixes most of the warnings. The rest of the code should hopefully be ready soon.
From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Detect GCC 8 cold subfunctions
GCC 8 moves a lot of unlikely code out of line to "cold" subfunctions in .text.unlikely. Properly detect the new subfunctions and treat them as extensions of the original functions.
This fixes a bunch of warnings like:
kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: parse_cgroup_root_flags()+0x33: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: cgroup_addrm_files()+0x290: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: cgroup_apply_control_enable()+0x25b: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: rebind_subsystems()+0x325: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
