Revision 3010a0663fd949d122eca0561b06b0a9453f7866 authored by Peter Zijlstra on 17 January 2018, 15:58:11 UTC, committed by Ingo Molnar on 21 February 2018, 08:05:03 UTC
Paravirt emits indirect calls which get flagged by objtool retpoline
checks, annotate it away because all these indirect calls will be
patched out before we start userspace.

This patching happens through alternative_instructions() ->
apply_paravirt() -> pv_init_ops.patch() which will eventually end up
in paravirt_patch_default(). This function _will_ write direct
alternatives.
