I'm really surprised the 0-day bot didn't find these.  I was under the
impression that it continuously did a bunch of randconfigs.

Anyway, if you could send the configs for the warnings, that would be
very helpful.

I also happen to be working on a significant rewrite of objtool and
these configs will come in handy for making a regression suite.
