[PATCH 11/16] objtool: Add --mnop as an option to --mcount

From: Sathvika Vasireddy
Date: Mon Aug 08 2022 - 07:51:47 EST


Architectures can select HAVE_NOP_MCOUNT if they choose
to nop out mcount call sites. If that config option is
selected, then --mnop is passed as an option to objtool,
along with --mcount.

Also, make sure that --mnop can be passed as an option
to objtool only when --mcount is passed.
