objtool: Fix X86_FEATURE_SMAP alternative handling
For X86_FEATURE_SMAP alternatives which replace NOP with STAC or CLAC, uaccess validation skips the NOP branch to avoid following impossible code paths, e.g. where a STAC would be patched but a CLAC wouldn't. However, it's not safe to assume an X86_FEATURE_SMAP alternative is patching STAC/CLAC. There can be other alternatives, like static_cpu_has(), where both branches need to be validated. Fix that by repurposing ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE for skipping either original instructions or new ones. This is a more generic approach which enables the removal of the feature checking hacks and the insn->ignore bit. Fixes the following warnings: arch/x86/mm/fault.o: warning: objtool: do_user_addr_fault+0x8ec: __stack_chk_fail() missing __noreturn in .c/.h or NORETURN() in noreturns.h arch/x86/mm/fault.o: warning: objtool: do_user_addr_fault+0x8f1: unreachable instruction [ mingo: Fix up conflicts with recent x86 changes. ] Fixes: ea24213d8088 ("objtool: Add UACCESS validation") Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/de0621ca242130156a55d5d74fed86994dfa4c9c.1742852846.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202503181736.zkZUBv4N-lkp@intel.com/
