Josh Poimboeuf 13810435b9 objtool: Support GCC 8's cold subfunctions
GCC 8 moves a lot of unlikely code out of line to "cold" subfunctions in
.text.unlikely.  Properly detect the new subfunctions and treat them as
extensions of the original functions.

This fixes a bunch of warnings like:

  kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: parse_cgroup_root_flags()+0x33: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: cgroup_addrm_files()+0x290: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: cgroup_apply_control_enable()+0x25b: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  kernel/cgroup/cgroup.o: warning: objtool: rebind_subsystems()+0x325: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame

README

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
