Linus Torvalds 69fc06f70f There are a lot of objtool changes in this cycle, all across the map:
- Speed up objtool significantly, especially when there are large number of sections
  - Improve objtool's understanding of special instructions such as IRET,
    to reduce the number of annotations required
  - Implement 'noinstr' validation
  - Do baby steps for non-x86 objtool use
  - Simplify/fix retpoline decoding
  - Add vmlinux validation
  - Improve documentation
  - Fix various bugs and apply smaller cleanups
