Here's the fix for #1 and #2.  I still need to work on the GCC 8
warnings.

Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Support unoptimized frame pointer setup

Arnd Bergmann reported a bunch of warnings like:

  crypto/jitterentropy.o: warning: objtool: jent_fold_time()+0x3b: call without frame pointer save/setup
  crypto/jitterentropy.o: warning: objtool: jent_stuck()+0x1d: call without frame pointer save/setup
  crypto/jitterentropy.o: warning: objtool: jent_unbiased_bit()+0x15: call without frame pointer save/setup
  crypto/jitterentropy.o: warning: objtool: jent_read_entropy()+0x32: call without frame pointer save/setup
  crypto/jitterentropy.o: warning: objtool: jent_entropy_collector_free()+0x19: call without frame pointer save/setup

and

  arch/x86/events/core.o: warning: objtool: collect_events uses BP as a scratch register
  arch/x86/events/core.o: warning: objtool: events_ht_sysfs_show()+0x22: call without frame pointer save/setup

With certain rare configurations, GCC sometimes sets up the frame
pointer with:

  lea    (%rsp),%rbp

instead of:

  mov    %rsp,%rbp

The instructions are equivalent, so treat the former like the latter.
