    Subject[PATCH v5 08/33] objtool: arm64: Accept non-instruction data in code sections
    Date
    The compiler can generate some '0x0' words in code sections to pad the
    end of functions. Also some pesudo-instructions can generate data in
    code sections. Mark them as INSN_NOP.

    If there are other undecoded instructions, just record and remove them
    from validation list.

    These doesn't influence check and orc generation because these undecoded
    instructions also won't be excuted.
