* objtool: Move synced files to their original relative locationsJosh Poimboeuf2017-11-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This will enable more straightforward comparisons, and it also makes the files 100% identical.

* objtool: Add ORC unwind table generationJosh Poimboeuf2017-07-181-0/+30
Now that objtool knows the states of all registers on the stack for each instruction, it's straightforward to generate debuginfo for an unwinder to use. Instead of generating DWARF, generate a new format called ORC, which is more suitable for an in-kernel unwinder. See Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt for a more detailed description of this new debuginfo format and why it's preferable to DWARF.
