[PATCH 1/1] tools/objtools: tolerate mix of data in code section

[Saeed Mirzamohammadi]

Hand-written asm files might have data in the .text section and this
causes the objtools to not find the starting instruction. This avoids
this warning.

warning: objtool: n8_SafeDecrypt_RIJ128(): can't find starting instruction
