objtool: Support '-mtune=atom' stack frame setup instruction

Arnd reported that enabling CONFIG_MATOM results in a bunch of objtool
false positive frame pointer warnings:

  arch/x86/events/intel/ds.o: warning: objtool: intel_pmu_pebs_del()+0x43: call without frame pointer save/setup
  security/keys/keyring.o: warning: objtool: keyring_read()+0x59: call without frame pointer save/setup
  kernel/signal.o: warning: objtool: __dequeue_signal()+0xd8: call without frame pointer save/setup
  ...

objtool gets confused by the fact that the '-mtune=atom' GCC option
sometimes uses 'lea (%rsp),%rbp' instead of 'mov %rsp,%rbp'.  The
instructions are effectively the same, but objtool doesn't know about
the 'lea' variant.

Fix the false warnings by adding support for 'lea (%rsp),%rbp' in the
objtool decoder.
