Currently, using llvm-objtool, this script just silently succeeds without
actually do the intended checking. So this updates it to work properly.
Firstly, llvm-objdump does not add target symbol names to the end
of branches in its asm output, so we have to drop the branch to
__start_initialization_multiplatform using its address.
Secondly, v9 and 10 specify branch targets as .+<offset>, so we convert
those to actual addresses.
Thirdly, v10 and 11 error out on a vmlinux if given the -R option
complaining that it is "not a dynamic object". The -R does not make
any difference to the asm output, so remove it.
Lastly, v11 produces asm that is very similar to Gnu objtool (at least
as far as branches are concerned), so no further changes are necessary
to make it work.
