Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Fix infinite loop in for_offset_range()

Randy reported that objtool got stuck in an infinite loop when
processing drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-parport.o.  It was caused by the
following code:

  00000000000001fd <line_set>:
   1fd:	48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 	movabs $0x0,%rax
   204:	00 00 00
  			1ff: R_X86_64_64	.rodata-0x8
   207:	41 55                	push   %r13
   209:	41 89 f5             	mov    %esi,%r13d
   20c:	41 54                	push   %r12
   20e:	49 89 fc             	mov    %rdi,%r12
   211:	55                   	push   %rbp
   212:	48 89 d5             	mov    %rdx,%rbp
   215:	53                   	push   %rbx
   216:	0f b6 5a 01          	movzbl 0x1(%rdx),%ebx
   21a:	48 8d 34 dd 00 00 00 	lea    0x0(,%rbx,8),%rsi
   221:	00
  			21e: R_X86_64_32S	.rodata
   222:	48 89 f1             	mov    %rsi,%rcx
   225:	48 29 c1             	sub    %rax,%rcx

find_jump_table() saw the .rodata reference and tried to find a jump
table associated with it (though there wasn't one).  The -0x8 rela
addend is unusual.  It caused find_jump_table() to send a negative
table_offset (unsigned 0xfffffffffffffff8) to find_rela_by_dest().

The negative offset should have been harmless, but it actually threw
for_offset_range() for a loop... literally.  When the mask value got
incremented past the end value, it also wrapped to zero, causing the
loop exit condition to remain true forever.

Prevent this scenario from happening by ensuring the incremented value
is always >= the starting value.

Fixes: 74b873e49d92 ("objtool: Optimize find_rela_by_dest_range()")
