4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Josh Poimboeuf jpoimboe@redhat.com
commit 258c76059cece01bebae098e81bacb1af2edad17 upstream.
Getting objtool to understand retpolines is going to be a bit of a challenge. For now, take advantage of the fact that retpolines are patched in with alternatives. Just read the original (sane) non-alternative instruction, and ignore the patched-in retpoline.
This allows objtool to understand the control flow *around* the retpoline, even if it can't yet follow what's inside. This means the ORC unwinder will fail to unwind from inside a retpoline, but will work fine otherwise.
