ICP: Silence objtool "stack pointer realignment" warnings #11914

Merged

Motivation and Context

Objtool requires the use of a DRAP register while aligning the stack. Since a DRAP register is a gcc concept and we are notoriously low on registers in the crypto code, it's not worth the effort to mimic gcc generated stack realignment.

Description

We simply silence the warning by adding the offending object files to OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD.

How Has This Been Tested?

Just a local build.

Types of changes

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Performance enhancement (non-breaking change which improves efficiency)
  • Code cleanup (non-breaking change which makes code smaller or more readable)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Library ABI change (libzfs, libzfs_core, libnvpair, libuutil and libzfsbootenv)
  • Documentation (a change to man pages or other documentation)
