These are simple conditional tail-calls and *should* be recognised as such by objtool, however due to a mistake in commit 08f87a93c8ec ("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.
