The '--lto' option is a confusing way of telling objtool to do stack
validation despite it being a linked object. It's no longer needed now
that an explicit '--stackval' option exists. The '--vmlinux' option is
also redundant.
Remove both options in favor of a straightforward '--link' option which
identifies a linked object.
Also, implicitly set '--link' with a warning if the user forgets to do
so and we can tell that it's a linked object. This makes it easier for
manual vmlinux runs.

Extricate ibt from validate_branch() so they can be executed (or ported)
independently from each other.
While shuffling code around, simplify and improve the ibt logic:
- Ignore an explicit list of known sections which reference functions
for reasons other than indirect branching to them. This helps prevent
unnnecesary sealing.
- Warn on missing !ENDBR for all other sections, not just .data and
.rodata. This finds additional warnings, because there are sections
other than .[ro]data which reference function pointers. For example,
the ksymtab sections which are used for exporting symbols.

Objtool has a fairly singular focus. It runs on object files and does
validations and transformations which can be combined in various ways.
The subcommand model has never been a good fit, making it awkward to
combine and remove options.
Remove the "check" and "orc" subcommands in favor of a more traditional
cmdline option model. This makes it much more flexible to use, and
easier to port individual features to other arches.

Split the existing options into two groups: actions, which actually do
something; and options, which modify the actions in some way.
Also there's no need to have short flags for all the non-action options.
Reserve short flags for the more important actions.
While at it:
- change a few of the short flags to be more intuitive
- make option descriptions more consistently descriptive
- sort options in the source like they are when printed
- move options to a global struct

Objtool's function fallthrough detection only works on C objects.
The distinction between C and assembly objects no longer makes sense
with objtool running on vmlinux.o.
Now that copy_user_64.S has been fixed up, and an objtool sibling call
detection bug has been fixed, the asm code is in "compliance" and this
hack is no longer needed. Remove it.

In add_jump_destinations(), sibling call detection requires 'insn->func'
to be valid. But alternative instructions get their 'func' set in
handle_group_alt(), which runs *after* add_jump_destinations(). So
sibling calls in alternatives code don't get properly detected.
Fix that by changing the initialization order: call
add_special_section_alts() *before* add_jump_destinations().
This also means the special case for a missing 'jump_dest' in
add_jump_destinations() can be removed, as it has already been dealt
with.

When a "!ENDBR" warning is reported for a data section, objtool just
prints the text address of the relocation target twice, without giving
any clues about the location of the original data reference:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: dcbnl_netdevice_event()+0x0: .text+0xb64680: data relocation to !ENDBR: dcbnl_netdevice_event+0x0
Instead, print the address of the data reference, in addition to the
address of the relocation target.

Since not all compilers have a function attribute to disable KCOV
instrumentation, objtool can rewrite KCOV instrumentation in noinstr
functions as per commit:
f56dae88a8 ("objtool: Handle __sanitize_cov*() tail calls")
However, this has subtle interaction with the SLS validation from
commit:
1cc1e4c8aa ("objtool: Add straight-line-speculation validation")
In that when a tail-call instrucion is replaced with a RET an
additional INT3 instruction is also written, but is not represented in
the decoded instruction stream.
This then leads to false positive missing INT3 objtool warnings in
noinstr code.
Instead of adding additional struct instruction objects, mark the RET
instruction with retpoline_safe to suppress the warning (since we know
there really is an INT3).

These are simple conditional tail-calls and *should* be recognised as
such by objtool, however due to a mistake in commit 08f87a93c8
("objtool: Validate IBT assumptions") this is failing.
Specifically, the jump_dest is +4, this means the instruction pointed
at will not be ENDBR and as such it will fail the second clause of
is_first_func_insn() that was supposed to capture this exact case.
Instead, have is_first_func_insn() look at the previous instruction.

Intel IBT requires that every indirect JMP/CALL targets an ENDBR
instructions, failing this #CP happens and we die. Similarly, all
exception entries should be ENDBR.
Find all code relocations and ensure they're either an ENDBR
instruction or ANNOTATE_NOENDBR. For the exceptions look for
UNWIND_HINT_IRET_REGS at sym+0 not being ENDBR.
