It seems like an objtool bug, though at first glance I don't know where
exactly. It could be a problem with the rb-tree stuff Peter added
recently.

That instruction should be part of the __fentry__ function:

4: 0000000000000000 165 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 3 __fentry__

So find_symbol_containing() should associate it with __fentry__.
