Later commits will cause objtool to warn about static keys being used in
.noinstr sections in order to safely defer instruction patching IPIs
targeted at NOHZ_FULL CPUs.
stack_erasing_bypass is used in .noinstr code, and can be modified at runtime
(proc/sys/kernel/stack_erasing write). However it is not expected that it
will be flipped during latency-sensitive operations, and thus shouldn't be
a source of interference wrt the text patching IPI.
Mark it to let objtool know not to warn about it.
