objtool: Add --mnop as an option to --mcount
Some architectures (powerpc) may not support ftrace locations being nop'ed out at build time. Introduce CONFIG_HAVE_OBJTOOL_NOP_MCOUNT for objtool, as a means for architectures to enable nop'ing of ftrace locations. Add --mnop as an option to objtool --mcount, to indicate support for the same. Also, make sure that --mnop can be passed as an option to objtool only when --mcount is passed. Tested-by: Naveen N.
