Peter Zijlstra 882a0db9d1 objtool: Improve UACCESS coverage
A clang build reported an (obvious) double CLAC while a GCC build did not;
it turns out that objtool only re-visits instructions if the first visit
was with AC=0. If OTOH the first visit was with AC=1, it completely ignores
any subsequent visit, even when it has AC=0.

Fix this by using a visited mask instead of a boolean, and (explicitly)
mark the AC state.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
