[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.5 34/41] objtool: Fix _THIS_IP_ detection for cold functions

[ Upstream commit 72178d5d1a38dd185d1db15f177f2d122ef10d9b ]

Cold functions and their non-cold counterparts can use _THIS_IP_ to
reference each other. Don't warn about !ENDBR in that case.

Note that for GCC this is currently irrelevant in light of the following
commit

c27cd083cfb9 ("Compiler attributes: GCC cold function alignment workarounds")

which disabled cold functions in the kernel. However this may still be
possible with Clang.

Fixes several warnings like the following:
