Subject[PATCH v3 12/13] retpoline/objtool: Disable some objtool warnings
Date
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

With the indirect call thunk enabled compiler two objtool
warnings are triggered very frequently and make the build
very noisy.

I don't see a good way to avoid them, so just disable them
for now.
