[RFC PATCH v3 08/22] objtool: Introduce STATIC_CHECK

From: madvenka
Date: Thu Feb 02 2023 - 02:42:56 EST


From: "Madhavan T. Venkataraman" <madvenka@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Objtool currently implements static stack validation. Another method called
dynamic validation can be supported for other architectures.

Define STATIC_CHECK to select the files required for static validation
in objtool build.
