Since the function only consists of a single RET instruction, could we
just do an asm(ANNOTATE_UNSAFE_RET) here?  i.e. see patch below.

Why was there no .rela section?

Anyway I don't see how this can work, since the code below it traverses
sec->reloc_list, which only exists for rela sections.

Here's the ANNOTATE_UNSAFE_RET idea.  Most of the diff is moving the
annotation macros to objtool.h (where they belong anyway).

If there are no objections I can split this up into proper patches
tomorrow.
