After an objtool improvement, it's complaining about the CLAC in copy_user_handle_tail(): arch/x86/lib/copy_user_64.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0x12: redundant UACCESS disable arch/x86/lib/copy_user_64.o: warning: objtool: copy_user_handle_tail()+0x6: (alt) arch/x86/lib/copy_user_64.o: warning: objtool: copy_user_handle_tail()+0x2: (alt) arch/x86/lib/copy_user_64.o: warning: objtool: copy_user_handle_tail()+0x0: <=== (func) copy_user_handle_tail() is incorrectly marked as a callable function, so objtool is rightfully concerned about the CLAC with no corresponding STAC. Remove the ELF function annotation. The copy_user_handle_tail() code path is already verified by objtool because it's jumped to by other callable asm code (which does the corresponding STAC).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
