[PATCH V2 5/9] objtool: Add support for intra-function calls

[Alexandre Chartre]

Change objtool to support intra-function calls. On x86, an intra-function
call is represented in objtool as a push onto the stack (of the return
address), and a jump to the destination address. That way the stack
information is correctly updated and the call flow is still accurate.

+9. file.o: warning: unsupported intra-function call
+
+   This warning means that a direct call is done to a destination which
+   is not at the beginning of a function. If this is a legit call, you
+   can remove this warning by putting the ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL
+   directive right before the call.
+
+
 If the error doesn't seem to make sense, it could be a bug in objtool.
 Feel free to ask the objtool maintainer for help.
