Merge tag 'objtool-core-2025-01-20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Introduce the generic section-based annotation infrastructure a.k.a.
   ASM_ANNOTATE/ANNOTATE (Peter Zijlstra)

 - Convert various facilities to ASM_ANNOTATE/ANNOTATE: (Peter Zijlstra)
    - ANNOTATE_NOENDBR
    - ANNOTATE_RETPOLINE_SAFE
    - instrumentation_{begin,end}()
    - VALIDATE_UNRET_BEGIN
    - ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE
    - ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL
    - {.UN}REACHABLE

 - Optimize the annotation-sections parsing code (Peter Zijlstra)

 - Centralize annotation definitions in <linux/objtool.h>

 - Unify & simplify the barrier_before_unreachable()/unreachable()
   definitions (Peter Zijlstra)

 - Convert unreachable() calls to BUG() in x86 code, as unreachable()
   has unreliable code generation (Peter Zijlstra)

 - Remove annotate_reachable() and annotate_unreachable(), as it's
   unreliable against compiler optimizations (Peter Zijlstra)

 - Fix non-standard ANNOTATE_REACHABLE annotation order (Peter Zijlstra)

 - Robustify the annotation code by warning about unknown annotation
   types (Peter Zijlstra)

 - Allow arch code to discover jump table size, in preparation of
   annotated jump table support (Ard Biesheuvel)
