Function elf_open_read() only zero initializes the initial part of
allocated struct elf; num_relocs member was recently added outside the
zeroed part so that it was left uninitialized, resulting in build failures
on some systems.
The partial initialization is a relic of times when struct elf had large
hash tables embedded. This is no longer the case so remove the trap and
initialize the whole structure instead.

The objtool merge in commit 6f612579be ("Merge tag 'objtool-core ...")
generated a semantic conflict that was not resolved.
The btrfs_assertfail() entry was removed from the noreturn list in
commit b831306b3b ("btrfs: print assertion failure report and stack
trace from the same line") because btrfs_assertfail() was changed from a
noreturn function into a macro.
The noreturn list was then moved from check.c to noreturns.h in commit
6245ce4ab6 ("objtool: Move noreturn function list to separate file"),
and should be removed from that post-merge as well.
Do it explicitly.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molar:
"Build footprint & performance improvements:
- Reduce memory usage with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
In the worst case of an allyesconfig+CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y kernel,
DWARF creates almost 200 million relocations, ballooning objtool's
peak heap usage to 53GB. These patches reduce that to 25GB.
On a distro-type kernel with kernel IBT enabled, they reduce
objtool's peak heap usage from 4.2GB to 2.8GB.
These changes also improve the runtime significantly.
Debuggability improvements:
- Add the unwind_debug command-line option, for more extend unwinding
debugging output
- Limit unreachable warnings to once per function
- Add verbose option for disassembling affected functions
- Include backtrace in verbose mode
- Detect missing __noreturn annotations
- Ignore exc_double_fault() __noreturn warnings
- Remove superfluous global_noreturns entries
- Move noreturn function list to separate file
- Add __kunit_abort() to noreturns
Unwinder improvements:
- Allow stack operations in UNWIND_HINT_UNDEFINED regions
- drm/vmwgfx: Add unwind hints around RBP clobber
Cleanups:
- Move the x86 entry thunk restore code into thunk functions
- x86/unwind/orc: Use swap() instead of open coding it
- Remove unnecessary/unused variables
Fixes for modern stack canary handling"

Assertions reports are split into two parts, the exact file and location
of the condition and then the stack trace printed from
btrfs_assertfail(). This means all the stack traces report the same line
and this is what's typically reported by various tools, making it harder
to distinguish the reports.

This comes at a cost of bloating the final btrfs.ko module due all the
inlining, as long as assertions are compiled in. This is a must for

Objtool doesn't use DWARF at all, and the DWARF sections' data take up a
lot of memory. Skip reading them.
Note this only skips the DWARF base sections, not the rela sections.
The relas are needed because their symbol references may need to be
reindexed if any local symbols get added by elf_create_symbol().
Also note the DWARF data will eventually be read by libelf anyway, when
writing the object file. But that's fine, the goal here is to reduce
*peak* memory usage, and the previous patch (which freed insn memory)
gave some breathing room. So the allocation gets shifted to a later
time, resulting in lower peak memory usage.
With allyesconfig + CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO:
- Before: peak heap memory consumption: 29.93G
- After: peak heap memory consumption: 25.47G

When creating an annotation section, allocate the reloc section data at
the beginning. This simplifies the data model a bit and also saves
memory due to the removal of malloc() in elf_rebuild_reloc_section().
With allyesconfig + CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO:
- Before: peak heap memory consumption: 53.49G
- After: peak heap memory consumption: 49.02G

The GElf_Rel[a] structs have more similarities than differences. It's
safe to hard-code the assumptions about their shared fields as they will
never change. Consolidate their handling where possible, getting rid of
duplicated code.
Also, at least for now we only ever create rela sections, so simplify
the relocation creation code to be rela-only.
