Subject: [PATCH 3/3] objtool: un-capitalize "Warning" for out-of-sync instruction decoder

Change "Warning" to "warning" to make it look more like a gcc warning.
Hopefully that will be enough to help the 0-day bot or other automated
tools catch this warning earlier before it ends up in Linus's tree.
