Subject: [PATCH 4.9 44/86] x86/boot, objtool: Annotate indirect jump in secondary_startup_64()

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>

commit bd89004f6305cbf7352238f61da093207ee518d6 upstream.

The objtool retpoline validation found this indirect jump. Seeing how
it's on CPU bringup before we run userspace it should be safe, annotate
it.
