With ClangLTO or -ffunction-sections (DCE, FG-KASLR), compiler places C functions into separate sections by default. However, this doesn't happen with ASM functions which are still being placed into .text. Introduce a pack of macros which generate a new unique section for the describing function named in the same fashion (.text.<func_name>). This will be needed to make input .text section empty to harden the kernel even more.
