For certain configs objtool will complain like:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: lkdtm_UNSET_SMEP+0x1c3: relocation to !ENDBR: native_write_cr4+0x41
What happens is that GCC optimizes the loop:
insn = (unsigned char *)native_write_cr4;
for (i = 0; i < MOV_CR4_DEPTH; i++)
to read something like:
for (insn = (unsigned char *)native_write_cr4;
insn < (unsigned char *)native_write_cr4 + MOV_CR4_DEPTH;
insn++)
Which then obviously generates the text reference
native_write_cr4+041. Since none of this is a fast path, simply
confuse GCC enough to inhibit this optimization.
