Awesome, thanks very much. After digging into the WARN-style option,
it seems that TRAP is unlikely to go away because it's Clang only;
GCC doesn't support the "minimal runtime" option. Yay compilers.

Anyway, I'll still get the WARN mode sent out. Thanks for looking at this;
can you CC me on the patch? I'm trying to get more familiar with objtool
so I don't have to bug you when objtool is angered by crazy stuff I do. ;)
