Subject: objtool: Treat .text.__x86.* as noinstr
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 951ddecf435659553ed15a9214e153a3af43a9a1 upstream.
Needed because zen_untrain_ret() will be called from noinstr code.
Also makes sense since the thunks MUST NOT contain instrumentation nor
be poked with dynamic instrumentation.
