This is raw data that is after the function end and that shouldn't be 
taken into account as text by objtool. But ghashp8-ppc.S is generated by 
a perl script and should have been marked as OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD.

For some reason, commit 109303336a0c ("crypto: vmx - Move to 
arch/powerpc/crypto") missed it. So now that 'bla' is understood as a 
call instruction, we hit the problem.

Can you try with following fix:

diff --git a/arch/powerpc/crypto/Makefile b/arch/powerpc/crypto/Makefile
index 9b38f4a7bc15..2f00b22b0823 100644
