Looks like it segfaults when calling BT_FUNC() for an instruction that
doesn't have a section (?). Applying this patch allows objtool to finish
with --backtrace:

diff --git a/tools/objtool/check.c b/tools/objtool/check.c

 				if (ret) {

+					if (backtrace && insn->sec)
 						BT_FUNC("(branch)", insn);
 					return ret;
 				}


Running objtool -barfld on an allyesconfig+LTO vmlinux.o prints out the
following, ignoring the crypto warnings for now:
