[PATCH v6 10/10] x86/retpoline: Exclude objtool with retpoline

[David Woodhouse]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

objtool's assembler nanny currently cannot deal with the code generated
by the retpoline compiler and throws hundreds of warnings, mostly
because it sees calls that don't have a symbolic target.

Exclude all the options that rely on objtool when RETPOLINE is active.

This mainly means that we use the frame pointer unwinder and livepatch
is not supported.

Eventually objtool can be fixed to handle this.
