[PATCH v3 12/13] retpoline/objtool: Disable some objtool warnings
From: David Woodhouse
Date: Thu Jan 04 2018 - 09:42:06 EST
From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
With the indirect call thunk enabled compiler two objtool
warnings are triggered very frequently and make the build
very noisy.
I don't see a good way to avoid them, so just disable them
for now.
