Josh Poimboeuf 05026ea01e objtool, lkdtm: Obfuscate the do_nothing() pointer
If execute_location()'s memcpy of do_nothing() gets inlined and unrolled
by the compiler, it copies one word at a time:

    mov    0x0(%rip),%rax    R_X86_64_PC32    .text+0x1374
    mov    %rax,0x38(%rbx)
    mov    0x0(%rip),%rax    R_X86_64_PC32    .text+0x136c
    mov    %rax,0x30(%rbx)
    ...

Those .text references point to the middle of the function, causing
objtool to complain about their lack of ENDBR.

Prevent that by resolving the function pointer at runtime rather than
build time.  This fixes the following warning:

  drivers/misc/lkdtm/lkdtm.o: warning: objtool: execute_location+0x23: relocation to !ENDBR: .text+0x1378

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
