objtool: Fix function fallthrough detection for vmlinux
Objtool's function fallthrough detection only works on C objects. The distinction between C and assembly objects no longer makes sense with objtool running on vmlinux.o. Now that copy_user_64.S has been fixed up, and an objtool sibling call detection bug has been fixed, the asm code is in "compliance" and this hack is no longer needed. Remove it. Fixes: ed53a0d97192 ("x86/alternative: Use .ibt_endbr_seal to seal indirect calls") Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/b434cff98eca3a60dcc64c620d7d5d405a0f441c.1649718562.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com
