objtool: Ignore end-of-section jumps for KCOV/GCOV
commit 0d7597749f5a3ac67851d3836635d084df15fb66 upstream. When KCOV or GCOV is enabled, dead code can be left behind, in which case objtool silences unreachable and undefined behavior (fallthrough) warnings. Fallthrough warnings, and their variant "end of section" warnings, were silenced with the following commit: 6b023c784204 ("objtool: Silence more KCOV warnings") Another variant of a fallthrough warning is a jump to the end of a function. If that function happens to be at the end of a section, the jump destination doesn't actually exist. Normally that would be a fatal objtool error, but for KCOV/GCOV it's just another undefined behavior fallthrough. Silence it like the others. Fixes the following warning: drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.o: warning: objtool: iommu_dma_sw_msi+0x92: can't find jump dest instruction at .text+0x54d5 Fixes: 6b023c784204 ("objtool: Silence more KCOV warnings") Reported-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/08fbe7d7e1e20612206f1df253077b94f178d93e.1743481539.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/314f8809-cd59-479b-97d7-49356bf1c8d1@infradead.org/ Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
