Tiezhu Yang 5dfea6644d LoongArch: Pass annotate-tablejump option if LTO is enabled
When compiling with LLVM and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is set, there exist many
objtool warnings "sibling call from callable instruction with modified
stack frame".

For this special case, the related object file shows that there is no
generated relocation section '.rela.discard.tablejump_annotate' for the
table jump instruction jirl, thus objtool can not know that what is the
actual destination address.

It needs to do something on the LLVM side to make sure that there is the
relocation section '.rela.discard.tablejump_annotate' if LTO is enabled,
but in order to maintain compatibility for the current LLVM compiler,
this can be done in the kernel Makefile for now. Ensure it is aware of
linker with LTO, '--loongarch-annotate-tablejump' needs to be passed via
'-mllvm' to ld.lld.

Note that it should also pass the compiler option -mannotate-tablejump
rather than only pass '-mllvm --loongarch-annotate-tablejump' to ld.lld
if LTO is enabled, otherwise there are no jump info for some table jump
instructions.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
