If a global function doesn't return, and its prototype has the
__noreturn attribute, its weak counterpart must also not return so that
it matches the prototype and meets call site expectations.
To properly follow the compiled control flow at the call sites, change
the global_noreturns check to include both global and weak functions.
On the other hand, if a weak function isn't in global_noreturns, assume
the prototype doesn't have __noreturn. Even if the weak function
doesn't return, call sites treat it like a returnable function.

Mark reported that the ORC unwinder incorrectly marks an unwind as
reliable when the unwind terminates prematurely in the dark corners of
return_to_handler() due to lack of information about the next frame.
The problem is UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY is used in two different situations:
1) The end of the kernel stack unwind before hitting user entry, boot
code, or fork entry
2) A blind spot in ORC coverage where the unwinder has to bail due to
lack of information about the next frame
The ORC unwinder has no way to tell the difference between the two.
When it encounters an undefined stack state with 'end=1', it blindly
marks the stack reliable, which can break the livepatch consistency
model.
Fix it by splitting UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY into UNWIND_HINT_UNDEFINED and
UNWIND_HINT_END_OF_STACK.

Before commit 076cbf5d2163 ("x86/xen: don't let xen_pv_play_dead()
return"), in Xen, when a previously offlined CPU was brought back
online, it unexpectedly resumed execution where it left off in the
middle of the idle loop.
There were some hacks to make that work, but the behavior was surprising
as do_idle() doesn't expect an offlined CPU to return from the dead (in
arch_cpu_idle_dead()).
Now that Xen has been fixed, and the arch-specific implementations of
arch_cpu_idle_dead() also don't return, give it a __noreturn attribute.
This will cause the compiler to complain if an arch-specific
implementation might return. It also improves code generation for both
caller and callee.
Also fixes the following warning:

being identical and turns one symbol into a direct branch to the

Some out-of-tree modules still do not use module_init() / module_exit()
macros and simply create functions with magic names init_module() and
cleanup_module() instead. As a result, these functions are not recognized
as indirect call targets by objtool and such module fails to load into an
IBT enabled kernel.
This old way is not even documented any more but it is cleaner to issue
a warning than to let the module fail on load without obvious reason.

Hand-written asm often contains non-function symbols in executable
sections. _end symbols for finding the size of instruction blocks
for runtime processing is one such usage.
optprobe_template_end is one example that causes the warning:
objtool: optprobe_template_end(): can't find starting instruction
This is because the symbol happens to be at the end of the file (and
therefore end of a section in the object file).
So ignore end-of-section STT_NOTYPE symbols instead of bailing out
because an instruction can't be found. While we're here, add a more
descriptive warning for STT_FUNC symbols found at the end of a
section.

Pull x86 core updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Add the call depth tracking mitigation for Retbleed which has been
long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for
Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a
significant performance impact.
What it basically does is, it aligns all kernel functions to 16 bytes
boundary and adds a 16-byte padding before the function, objtool
collects all functions' locations and when the mitigation gets
applied, it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track
the call depth of the stack at any time.
When that call depth reaches a magical, microarchitecture-specific
value for the Return Stack Buffer, the code stuffs that RSB and
avoids its underflow which could otherwise lead to the Intel variant
of Retbleed.
This software-only solution brings a lot of the lost performance
back, as benchmarks suggest:

Boris (and the robot) reported that objtool grew a new complaint about
unreachable instructions. Upon inspection it was immediately clear
the __weak zombie instructions struck again.
For the unweary, the linker will simply remove the symbol for
overriden __weak symbols but leave the instructions in place, creating
unreachable instructions -- and objtool likes to report these.
Commit 4adb236867 ("objtool: Ignore extra-symbol code") was supposed
to have dealt with that, but the new commit 9f2899fe36 ("objtool:
Add option to generate prefix symbols") subtly broke that logic by
created unvisited symbols.
