If I am reading this and previous patch correctly...

The function would copy cfi only to "orig" alternative (its insn->alts is 
non-empty, orig_insn->alt_group differs from new_insn->alt_group), right? 
Would it make sense to do the same for "new" alternative, because of the 
invariant? It seems to me it is not processed anywhere that way.

Am I missing something? Whenever I try to read all this alternatives 
handling in objtool, I get lost pretty soon.

fill_alternative_cfi() is called here only for orig_insn, isn't it?
