From eda3dc905834dc9c99132f987f77b68cf53a8682 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julien Thierry Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2020 16:30:22 +0100 Subject: objtool: Abstract alternative special case handling Some alternatives associated with a specific feature need to be treated in a special way. Since the features and how to treat them vary from one architecture to another, move the special case handling to arch specific code.
