Typically a switch table can be found by detecting a .rodata access
followed an indirect jump:
1969: 4a 8b 0c e5 00 00 00 mov 0x0(,%r12,8),%rcx
1970: 00
196d: R_X86_64_32S .rodata+0x438
1971: e9 00 00 00 00 jmpq 1976 <dispc_runtime_suspend+0xb6a>
1972: R_X86_64_PC32 __x86_indirect_thunk_rcx-0x4
Randy Dunlap reported a case (seen with GCC 4.8) where the .rodata
access uses RIP-relative addressing:
19bd: 48 8b 3d 00 00 00 00 mov 0x0(%rip),%rdi # 19c4 <dispc_runtime_suspend+0xbb8>
19c0: R_X86_64_PC32 .rodata+0x45c
19c4: e9 00 00 00 00 jmpq 19c9 <dispc_runtime_suspend+0xbbd>
19c5: R_X86_64_PC32 __x86_indirect_thunk_rdi-0x4
In this case the relocation addend needs to be adjusted accordingly in
order to find the location of the switch table.
The fix is for case 3 (as described in the comments), but also make the
existing case 1 & 2 checks more precise by only adjusting the addend for
R_X86_64_PC32 relocations.
This fixes the following warnings:
drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/dss/dispc.o: warning: objtool: dispc_runtime_suspend()+0xbb8: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/dss/dispc.o: warning: objtool: dispc_runtime_resume()+0xcc5: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
