kernel/locking/rwsem.o: warning: objtool: up_read()+0x11: call without frame 
pointer save/setup

The warning means gcc 7.2.0 placed the __up_read() inline asm (and its
call instruction) before the frame pointer setup in up_read(),
which breaks frame pointer convention and can result in incorrect
stack traces.

Force a stack frame to be created before the call instruction by listing
the stack pointer as an output operand in the inline asm statement.
