ah, makes sense! I also upgraded to the latestest Fedora and misinterpreted the 
warning.

Btw., I like it how in other cases you didn't try to work the warning around in 
objtool, but improved the C code itself. We can consider this warning as a 
'unnecessarily complex switch statement' warning.

For example in this case I think we could use something like the patch below, 
because in reality the various cases are linear ranges. Totally untested.

Thanks,
