Re: [PATCH v4 2/2] lkdtm: Add Shadow Call Stack tests

From: Dan Li

Hi Kees,

Gentile ping for this :).

I also saw the discussion on llvm-project, use address of labels as a
parameter doesn't seem to be stable.

Do we need to split it into two cases here?

Link: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/54328

Thanks,
Dan
