Some distros seem to enable the -fcf-protection=branch by default, which breaks our setup on first instruction of uprobe trigger functions and place there endbr64 instruction. Marking them with nocf_check attribute to skip that. Ignoring unknown attribute warning in gcc for bench objects, because nocf_check can be used only when -fcf-protection=branch is enabled, otherwise we get a warning and break compilation.
