From: Winston Wen <wentao@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

On x86_64 with gcc version 13.3.0, I compile
drivers/vfio/pci/virtio/legacy_io.c with:

make defconfig
./scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh .config <(
echo CONFIG_VFIO=m
echo CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI=y
echo CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI_LIB_LEGACY=y
echo CONFIG_VIRTIO_VFIO_PCI=m
echo CONFIG_VIRTIO_VFIO_PCI_ADMIN_LEGACY=y
)
make KCFLAGS="-fno-inline-small-functions -fno-inline-functions-called-once" \
drivers/vfio/pci/virtio/legacy_io.o

Then I get a compile error:

CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh
DESCEND objtool
