[RFC PATCH 1/2] objtool: Run objtool only if either of the config options are selected

Currently, when objtool is enabled and none of the supported options
are triggered, kernel build errors out with the below error:
error: objtool: At least one command required.

To address this, ensure that objtool is run only when either of the
config options are selected.
