objtool: Improve call destination function detection
A recent clang change, combined with a binutils bug, can trigger a situation where a ".Lprintk$local" STT_NOTYPE symbol gets created at the same offset as the "printk" STT_FUNC symbol. This confuses objtool: kernel/printk/printk.o: warning: objtool: ignore_loglevel_setup()+0x10: can't find call dest symbol at .text+0xc67 Improve the call destination detection by looking specifically for an STT_FUNC symbol.
