Seeing the same warning for the 6.1.47-rc1, which is missing
4ae68b26c3ab ("objtool/x86: Fix SRSO mess"). Unfortunately the commit
will not apply cleanly to 6.1.y. 

I guess we need at least as well dbcdbdfdf137 ("objtool: Rework
instruction -> symbol mapping"), but not sure this is enough.

Peter, is this correct?

Salvatore
