Pull objtool fixes from Borislav Petkov:
 "Three fixes from Peter Zijlstra suppressing KCOV instrumentation in
  noinstr sections.

  Peter Zijlstra says:
    "Address KCOV vs noinstr. There is no function attribute to
     selectively suppress KCOV instrumentation, instead teach objtool
     to NOP out the calls in noinstr functions"

  This cures a bunch of KCOV crashes (as used by syzcaller)"

Since many compilers cannot disable KCOV with a function attribute,
help it to NOP out any __sanitizer_cov_*() calls injected in noinstr
code.

This turns:

12:   e8 00 00 00 00          callq  17 &lt;lockdep_hardirqs_on+0x17&gt;
		13: R_X86_64_PLT32      __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc-0x4

into:

12:   0f 1f 44 00 00          nopl   0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
		13: R_X86_64_NONE      __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc-0x4

Just like recordmcount does.

The UBSAN instrumentation only inserts external CALLs when things go
'BAD', much like WARN(). So treat them similar to WARN()s for noinstr,
that is: allow them, at the risk of taking the machine down, to get
their message out.

Merge the state of the locking kcsan branch before the read/write_once()
and the atomics modifications got merged.

Squash the fallout of the rebase on top of the read/write once and atomic
fallback work into the merge. The history of the original branch is
preserved in tag locking-kcsan-2020-06-02.

<title>objtool: Rename rela to reloc</title>

Before supporting additional relocation types rename the relevant
types and functions from "rela" to "reloc". This work be done with
the following regex:

  sed -e 's/struct rela/struct reloc/g' \
      -e 's/\([_\*]\)rela\(s\{0,1\}\)/\1reloc\2/g' \
      -e 's/tmprela\(s\{0,1\}\)/tmpreloc\1/g' \

      -e 's/rela-&gt;/reloc-&gt;/g' \
      -e '/rela[,\.]/{ s/\([^\.&gt;]\)rela\([\.,]\)/\1reloc\2/g ; }' \

      -e 's/= rela\;/= reloc\;/g' \
      -e 's/= relas\;/= relocs\;/g' \
      -e 's/= relaname\;/= relocname\;/g' \
      -e 's/, rela)/, reloc)/g' \
      -e 's/\([ @]\)rela\([ "]\)/\1reloc\2/g' \
      -e 's/ rela$/ reloc/g' \
      -e 's/, relaname/, relocname/g' \
      -e 's/sec-&gt;rela/sec-&gt;reloc/g' \
      -e 's/(\(!\{0,1\}\)rela/(\1reloc/g' \
      -i \
      arch.h \
      arch/x86/decode.c  \
      check.c \
      check.h \
      elf.c \
      elf.h \
      orc_gen.c \
      special.c

Notable exceptions which complicate the regex include gelf_*
library calls and standard/expected section names which still use
"rela" because they encode the type of relocation expected. Also, keep
"rela" in the struct because it encodes a specific type of relocation
we currently expect.

It will eventually turn into a member of an anonymous union when a
susequent patch adds implicit addend, or "rel", relocation support.
