These are simple conditional tail-calls and *should* be recognised as such by objtool, however due to a mistake in commit08f87a93c8("objtool: Validate IBT assumptions") this is failing. Specifically, the jump_dest is +4, this means the instruction pointed at will not be ENDBR and as such it will fail the second clause of is_first_func_insn() that was supposed to capture this exact case. Instead, have is_first_func_insn() look at the previous 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.
