- Adjust objtool to handle a recent binutils change to not generate unused
symbols anymore.
- Revert the fail-the-build-on-fatal-errors objtool strategy for now due to the
ever-increasing matrix of supported toolchains/plugins and them causing too
many such fatal errors currently.
- Do not add empty symbols to objdump's rbtree to accommodate clang removing
section symbols.
objtool: Don't fail on missing symbol table
Thanks to a recent binutils change which doesn't generate unused
symbols, it's now possible for thunk_64.o be completely empty without
CONFIG_PREEMPTION: no text, no data, no symbols.
We could edit the Makefile to only build that file when
CONFIG_PREEMPTION is enabled, but that will likely create confusion
if/when the thunks end up getting used by some other code again.
Just ignore it and move on.
