Subject: [PATCH kcsan 23/29] objtool, kcsan: Remove memory barrier instrumentation from noinstr

From: Marco Elver <elver@...gle.com>

Teach objtool to turn instrumentation required for memory barrier
modeling into nops in noinstr text.

The __tsan_func_entry/exit calls are still emitted by compilers even
with the __no_sanitize_thread attribute. The memory barrier
instrumentation will be inserted explicitly (without compiler help), and
thus needs to also explicitly be removed.
