Subjectlinux-next 20220125 - build failure in objtool with gcc 12
Date
Fedora Rawhide shipped gcc12, which apparently includes a new warning that
causes a build failure. Apparently, it's unable to figure out that 'ptr' remains
valid on failed realloc(), and we only call realloc() again on failures...
