objtool: Allow no-op CFI ops in alternatives
Randy reported a false-positive: arch/x86/hyperv/hv_apic.o: warning: objtool: hv_apic_write()+0x25: alternative modifies stack What happens is that: alternative_io("movl %0, %P1", "xchgl %0, %P1", X86_BUG_11AP, 13d: 89 9d 00 d0 7f ff mov %ebx,-0x803000(%rbp) decodes to an instruction with CFI-ops because it modifies RBP. However, due to this being a !frame-pointer build, that should not in fact change the CFI state. So instead of dis-allowing any CFI-op, verify the op would've actually changed the CFI state.
