Because restore_registers() is page-aligned, the assembler inexplicably
adds an unreachable jump from after the end of the previous function to
the beginning of restore_registers().
That confuses objtool, understandably. It also creates significant text
fragmentation. As a result, most of the object file is wasted text
(nops).
Move restore_registers() to the beginning of the file to both prevent
the text fragmentation and avoid the dead jump instruction.

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 Restructured Text 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.
