Subject[PATCH v5 17/22] objtool: Disable CFI warnings
From
The __cfi_ preambles contain a mov instruction that embeds the KCFI
type identifier in the following format:

; type preamble
__cfi_function:
mov <id>, %eax
function:
...

While the preamble symbols are STT_FUNC and contain valid
instructions, they are never executed and always fall through. Skip
the warning for them.

.kcfi_traps sections point to CFI traps in text sections. Also skip
the warning about them referencing !ENDBR instructions.
