Sure and because of that it's overrated to make sure that it does not
break the build. I know, sekurity ...
But aside of that when looking at the rest of the series, then I really
have to ask whether the only way to address this is to make a large
amount of code unreadable like this:
- wrmsrl(MSR_LSTAR, (unsigned long)entry_SYSCALL_64);
+ wrmsrl(MSR_LSTAR, (unsigned long)function_nocfi(entry_SYSCALL_64));
plus a gazillion of similar changes.
This is unreadable garbage.
