In a gcc build this warning is replaced with a different one:

vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __startup_secondary_64()+0x7: return with
modified stack frame

This just seems to depend on which function is placed right after the
code in xen-head.S. With gcc, the disassembly looks like this:

0000000000000000 <asm_cpu_bringup_and_idle>:
       0:       e8 00 00 00 00          callq  5 <asm_cpu_bringup_and_idle+0x5>
                        1: R_X86_64_PLT32       cpu_bringup_and_idle-0x4
       5:       e9 f6 0f 00 00          jmpq   1000
<xen_hypercall_set_trap_table>
...
0000000000001000 <xen_hypercall_set_trap_table>:
        ...
...
0000000000002000 <__startup_secondary_64>:

With Clang+LTO, we end up with __switch_to_asm here instead of
__startup_secondary_64.

Thanks!
