objtool: Support asm jump tables

Browse Source 
commit 99033461e685b48549ec77608b4bda75ddf772ce upstream.

Objtool detection of asm jump tables would normally just work, except
for the fact that asm retpolines use alternatives.  Objtool thinks the
alternative code path (a jump to the retpoline) is a sibling call.

Don't treat alternative indirect branches as sibling calls when the
original instruction has a jump table.
