ASoC: Fixes for v6.19
We've been quite busy with fixes since the merge window, though not in any particularly exciting ways - the standout thing is the fix for _SX controls which were broken by a change to how we do clamping, otherwise it's all fairly run of the mill fixes and quirks.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- klp-build livepatch module generation (Josh Poimboeuf)
Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build script to generate livepatch modules using a source .patch as input.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script which injects #line directives into the source .patch to preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
- Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump (Alexandre Chartre)
- Disassemble support (-d option to objtool) by Alexandre Chartre, which supports the decoding of various Linux kernel code generation specials such as alternatives:
17ef: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x62f mov 0x34(%r9),%edx 17f3: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x633 | <alternative.17f3> | X86_FEATURE_POPCNT 17f3: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x633 | call 0x17f8 <__sw_hweight64> | popcnt %rdi,%rax 17f8: sched_balance_find_dst_group+0x638 cmp %eax,%edx

Merge branch 'objtool/core' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jpoimboe/linux
This series introduces new objtool features and a klp-build script to generate livepatch modules using a source .patch as input.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch [1] project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script which injects #line directives into the source .patch to preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
The primary user interface is the klp-build script which does the following:
- Builds an original kernel with -function-sections and -fdata-sections, plus objtool function checksumming.
- Applies the .patch file and rebuilds the kernel using the same options.
- Runs 'objtool klp diff' to detect changed functions and generate intermediate binary diff objects.
- Builds a kernel module which links the diff objects with some livepatch module init code (scripts/livepatch/init.c).
- Finalizes the livepatch module (aka work around linker wreckage) using 'objtool klp post-link'.
I've tested with a variety of patches on defconfig and Fedora-config kernels with both GCC and Clang.

scripts/faddr2line: Fix "Argument list too long" error
The run_readelf() function reads the entire output of readelf into a single shell variable. For large object files with extensive debug information, the size of this variable can exceed the system's command-line argument length limit.
When this variable is subsequently passed to sed via `echo "${out}"`, it triggers an "Argument list too long" error, causing the script to fail.
Fix this by redirecting the output of readelf to a temporary file instead of a variable. The sed commands are then modified to read from this file, avoiding the argument length limitation entirely.

Revert "scripts/faddr2line: Check only two symbols when calculating symbol size"
This reverts commit c02904f05ff805d6c0631634d5751ebd338f75ec.
Such commit assumed that only two symbols are relevant for the symbol size calculation. However, this can lead to an incorrect symbol size calculation when there are mapping symbols emitted by readelf.
For instance, when feeding 'update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4', faddr2line might need to process the following readelf lines:
784284: ffffffc0081cca30 428 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 update_irq_load_avg 87319: ffffffc0081ccb0c 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62522 87321: ffffffc0081ccbdc 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62524 87323: ffffffc0081ccbe0 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62526 87325: ffffffc0081ccbe4 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62528 87327: ffffffc0081ccbe8 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62530 87329: ffffffc0081ccbec 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62532 87331: ffffffc0081ccbf0 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62534 87332: ffffffc0081ccbf4 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 $x.62535 783403: ffffffc0081ccbf4 424 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 sched_pelt_multiplier
The symbol size of 'update_irq_load_avg' should be calculated with the address of 'sched_pelt_multiplier', after skipping the mapping symbols seen in between. However, the offending commit cuts the list short and faddr2line incorrectly assumes 'update_irq_load_avg' is the last symbol in the section, resulting in:
$ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4 skipping update_irq_load_avg address at 0xffffffc0081cca4c due to size mismatch (0x1c4 != 0x3ff9a59988) no match for update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4
After reverting the commit the issue is resolved:
$ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4 update_irq_load_avg+0x1c/0x1c4: cpu_of at kernel/sched/sched.h:1109 (inlined by) update_irq_load_avg at kernel/sched/pelt.c:481
