Subject: x86/speculation, objtool: Annotate indirect calls/jumps for objtool on 32-bit kernels
From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit a14bff131108faf50cc0cf864589fd71ee216c96 upstream.
In the following commit:
9e0e3c5130e9 ("x86/speculation, objtool: Annotate indirect calls/jumps for objtool")
... we added annotations for CALL_NOSPEC/JMP_NOSPEC on 64-bit x86 kernels,
but we did not annotate the 32-bit path.
Annotate it similarly.
