The objtool command line 'objtool --hacks=jump_label foo.o' on its own
should be expected to rewrite jump labels to NOPs. This means the
add_special_section_alts() code path needs to run when only this option
is provided.
This is mainly relevant in certain debugging situations, but could
potentially also fix kernel builds in which objtool is run with
--hacks=jump_label but without --orc, --stackval, --uaccess, or
--hacks=noinstr.
Fixes: de6fbcedf5 ("objtool: Read special sections with alts only when specific options are selected")

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.
