objtool: Remove instruction::reloc

Instead of caching the reloc for each instruction, only keep a
negative cache of not having a reloc (by far the most common case).

struct instruction {
struct list_head list; /* 0 16 */
struct hlist_node hash; /* 16 16 */
struct list_head call_node; /* 32 16 */
struct section * sec; /* 48 8 */
long unsigned int offset; /* 56 8 */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
long unsigned int immediate; /* 64 8 */
unsigned int len; /* 72 4 */
u8 type; /* 76 1 */

/* Bitfield combined with previous fields */

u16 dead_end:1; /* 76: 8 2 */
u16 ignore:1; /* 76: 9 2 */
u16 ignore_alts:1; /* 76:10 2 */
u16 hint:1; /* 76:11 2 */
u16 save:1; /* 76:12 2 */
u16 restore:1; /* 76:13 2 */
u16 retpoline_safe:1; /* 76:14 2 */
u16 noendbr:1; /* 76:15 2 */
u16 entry:1; /* 78: 0 2 */
u16 visited:4; /* 78: 1 2 */
+ u16 no_reloc:1; /* 78: 5 2 */

- /* XXX 3 bits hole, try to pack */
+ /* XXX 2 bits hole, try to pack */
