I agree with Julien that this comment isn't needed.  The "arch_" prefix
already implies there are arch-specific differences.

Also, this patch should replace all the other "addend + 4" usages:

$ git grep "addend + 4" tools/objtool
tools/objtool/arch/x86/decode.c:        return addend + 4;
tools/objtool/check.c:                  dest_off = rela->addend + 4;
tools/objtool/check.c:                  dest_off = rela->sym->sym.st_value + 
rela->addend + 4;
