Subject: objtool/x86: Fixup frame-pointer vs rethunk
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit dbf46008775516f7f25c95b7760041c286299783 upstream.
For stack-validation of a frame-pointer build, objtool validates that
every CALL instruction is preceded by a frame-setup. The new SRSO
return thunks violate this with their RSB stuffing trickery.
Extend the __fentry__ exception to also cover the embedded_insn case
used for this. This cures:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: srso_untrain_ret+0xd: call without frame pointer save/setup
Fixes: 4ae68b26c3ab ("objtool/x86: Fix SRSO mess")
