Rustc does use $fp that objtool cannot handle as at now. It can be
demonstrated with an over-aligned type, similar to Clang:

$ cat t.rs
#[repr(C, align(64))]
struct X(i32);

extern { fn f(x: &X) -> i64; }

#[no_mangle]
fn g() -> i64 {
let x = X(114514);
unsafe {f(&x)}
}
$ rustc t.rs --emit=asm --crate-type=staticlib -O
$ grep fp t.s
st.d $fp, $sp, 112
addi.d $fp, $sp, 128
addi.d $sp, $fp, -128
ld.d $fp, $sp, 112

The kernel uses rust-bindgen to generate some .rs file from C headers.
And __attribute__((aligned(x))) is directly translated to
repr(align(x)). As __attribute__((aligned(x))) is very common in the
kernel I expect objtool will fail to handle some object code from rustc.

Maybe, AFAIK there's no assembler using thin add-sub but not explicit
relocs.
