Nice.

I gave it a try this morning, I selected HAVE_OBJTOOL and 
HAVE_OBJTOOL_MCOUNT from arch/powerpc/Kconfig


Seems like there are still some x86 arch specific stuff in common common 
code and I get the following errors.

Also, is it normal to get those functions built allthough I have not 
selected HAVE_STACK_VALIDATION ?

What would be the best approach to fix that ?
