Subject: objtool: Add retpoline validation

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

commit b5bc2231b8ad4387c9641f235ca0ad8cd300b6df upstream.

David requested a objtool validation pass for CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y enabled
builds, where it validates no unannotated indirect  jumps or calls are
left.

Add an additional .discard.retpoline_safe section to allow annotating
the few indirect sites that are required and safe.
