Subject[PATCH 01/21] objtool: Fix seg fault in BT_FUNC() with fake jump
Date
Objtool appends a temporary fake jump at the end of alternative
replacement instructions. If the replacement code is empty -- resulting
in patched nops -- the fake jump doesn't have a section. When running
objtool with '--backtrace', the fake jump's missing section can cause
BT_FUNC() to trigger a seg fault when the NULL insn->sec is passed to
offstr().

Fix it by ensuring fake jumps always have a section.

Fixes: 7697eee3ddd7 ("objtool: Add --backtrace support")
