OK, it would be interesting to spend a couple of hours staring at these errors and see if I can get a feel for the overal picture.. Also, now that I think about it I'm a bit embarrassed I didn't try building allmodconfig before sending this series (maybe I had forgotten it exists?)!

I can't quite parse what you're getting at here - is this an opinion about the idea to depend on !COMPILE_TEST, and if so are you in favour of it? My thinking is that if it defaults n and isn't in allmodconfig, the only people who will turn it on are those who actively care about clean objtool for their build. Which.. isn't really what we want long term, but it's better than not having the option at all and is already a step in the direction of something that can act as a "ratchet". If not, I'll go ahead with the OBJTOOL_FLAGS thing. (Which is still a nice step in that direction).
