objtool: Fix weak hole vs prefix symbol
Boris (and the robot) reported that objtool grew a new complaint about unreachable instructions. Upon inspection it was immediately clear the __weak zombie instructions struck again. For the unweary, the linker will simply remove the symbol for overriden __weak symbols but leave the instructions in place, creating unreachable instructions -- and objtool likes to report these. Commit 4adb23686795 ("objtool: Ignore extra-symbol code") was supposed to have dealt with that, but the new commit 9f2899fe36a6 ("objtool: Add option to generate prefix symbols") subtly broke that logic by created unvisited symbols. Fixes: 9f2899fe36a6 ("objtool: Add option to generate prefix symbols") Reported-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org>
