Subject: [PATCH 1/2] objtool: Check for gelf_update_rel[a] failures

Otherwise, if these fail we end up with garbage data in the
.rela.orc_unwind_ip section, leading to errors like

  ld: fs/squashfs/namei.o: bad reloc symbol index (0x7f16 >= 0x12) for offset 0x7f16d5c82cc8 in section `.orc_unwind_ip'
