[PATCH 2/3] powerpc64/ftrace: fix OOL stub count with clang

The total number of out-of-line (OOL) stubs required for function
tracing is determined using the following command:
$(OBJDUMP) -r -j __patchable_function_entries vmlinux.o
While this works correctly with GNU objdump, llvm-objdump does not
list the expected relocation records for this section. Fix this by
using the -d option and counting R_PPC64_ADDR64 relocation entries.
This works as desired with both objdump and llvm-objdump.
