x86/tools: objdump_reformat.awk: Skip bad instructions from llvm-objdump

Browse Source 
When running the instruction decoder selftest with LLVM=1 and
CONFIG_PVH=y, there is a series of warnings:

  arch/x86/tools/insn_decoder_test: warning: Found an x86 instruction decoder bug, please report this.
  arch/x86/tools/insn_decoder_test: warning: ffffffff81000050     ea                      <unknown>
  arch/x86/tools/insn_decoder_test: warning: objdump says 1 bytes, but insn_get_length() says 7
  arch/x86/tools/insn_decoder_test: warning: Decoded and checked 7214721 instructions with 1 failures

GNU objdump outputs "(bad)" instead of "<unknown>", which is already
handled in the bad_expr regex, so there is no warning.

  $ objdump -d arch/x86/platform/pvh/head.o | grep -E '50:\s+ea'
  50:   ea                      (bad)

  $ llvm-objdump -d arch/x86/platform/pvh/head.o | grep -E '50:\s+ea'
        50: ea                            <unknown>

Add "<unknown>" to the bad_expr regex to clear up the warning, allowing
the instruction decoder selftest to fully pass with llvm-objdump.
