[PATCH v3 14/16] objtool: Cache instruction relocs

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Fri Mar 26 2021 - 11:14:41 EST


Track the reloc of instructions to avoid having to look them up again
later.

(Technically x86 instructions can have two relocations, but not jumps
and calls, for which we're using this.)
