[PATCH] objtool,x86: Remove unneeded code in special_get_alts()

[Alexey Khoroshilov]

Commit 134ab5bd1883 ("objtool,x86: Replace alternatives with .retpoline_sites")
basically reverts
commit 50e7b4a1a1b2 ("objtool: Skip magical retpoline .altinstr_replacement"),
but it is an incomplete revert. As a result an unreachable code is left in
special_get_alts() that was intended to skip magical special sections.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
