Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 5/8] x86, build: use objtool mcount

From: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 6dafca97803309c3cb5148d449bfa711e41ddef2 ]

Select HAVE_OBJTOOL_MCOUNT if STACK_VALIDATION is selected to use
objtool to generate __mcount_loc sections for dynamic ftrace with
Clang and gcc <5 (later versions of gcc use -mrecord-mcount).
