From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 10b4c4bce3f5541f54bcc2039720b11d2bc96d79 ] If SAVE and RESTORE unwind hints are in different basic blocks, and objtool sees the RESTORE before the SAVE, it errors out with: vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: vmw_port_hb_in+0x242: objtool isn't smart enough to handle this CFI save/restore combo In such a case, defer following the RESTORE block until the straight-line path gets followed later.
