Peter Zijlstra 7d209d13e7 objtool: Add IBT/ENDBR decoding
Intel IBT requires the target of any indirect CALL or JMP instruction
to be the ENDBR instruction; optionally it allows those two
instructions to have a NOTRACK prefix in order to avoid this
requirement.

The kernel will not enable the use of NOTRACK, as such any occurence
of it in compiler generated code should be flagged.

Teach objtool to Decode ENDBR instructions and WARN about NOTRACK
prefixes.

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.
