[PATCH 1/1] x86/speculation, objtool: Annotate indirect calls/jumps for objtool on 32bit

From: Andy Whitcroft
Date: Wed Mar 14 2018 - 07:24:53 EST


In 9e0e3c5130e9 ("x86/speculation, objtool: Annotate indirect calls/jumps
for objtool") we added annotations for CALL_NOSPEC/JMP_NOSPEC on x86 64bit.
We did not annotate the 32bit path. Annotate it similarly.

While reviewing indirect calls in our builds I noted that the
i386 retpoline CALL_NOSPEC is not annotated safe even though
its amd64 equivalent is. I cannot see any reason this is not
also inherantly safe. Peter was there a reason that you did
not annotate this one too? Anyhow, on the assumption this was
just missed, this patch annotates it.
