This fixes objtool for both a GCC issue and a Clang issue:
1) GCC issue:
kernel/bpf/core.o: warning: objtool: ___bpf_prog_run()+0x8d5: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
With CONFIG_RETPOLINE=n, GCC is doing the following optimization in
___bpf_prog_run().
Before:
select_insn:
jmp *jumptable(,%rax,8)
...
ALU64_ADD_X:
...
jmp select_insn
ALU_ADD_X:
...
jmp select_insn
After:
select_insn:
jmp *jumptable(, %rax, 8)
...
ALU64_ADD_X:
...
jmp *jumptable(, %rax, 8)
ALU_ADD_X:
...
jmp *jumptable(, %rax, 8)
This confuses objtool. It has never seen multiple indirect jump
sites which use the same jump table.
For GCC switch tables, the only way of detecting the size of a table
is by continuing to scan for more tables. The size of the previous
table can only be determined after another switch table is found, or
when the scan reaches the end of the function.
That logic was reused for C jump tables, and was based on the
assumption that each jump table only has a single jump site. The
above optimization breaks that assumption.
2) Clang issue:
drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusb.o: warning: objtool: sisusb_write_mem_bulk()+0x588: can't find switch jump table
With clang 9, code can be generated where a function contains two
indirect jump instructions which use the same switch table.
The fix is the same for both issues: split the jump table parsing into
two passes.
In the first pass, locate the heads of all switch tables for the
function and mark their locations.
In the second pass, parse the switch tables and add them.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
