objtool: Fix IBT tail-call detection
Objtool reports:
  arch/x86/crypto/poly1305-x86_64.o: warning: objtool: poly1305_blocks_avx() falls through to next function poly1305_blocks_x86_64()
  arch/x86/crypto/poly1305-x86_64.o: warning: objtool: poly1305_emit_avx() falls through to next function poly1305_emit_x86_64()
  arch/x86/crypto/poly1305-x86_64.o: warning: objtool: poly1305_blocks_avx2() falls through to next function poly1305_blocks_x86_64()
Which reads like:
0000000000000040 <poly1305_blocks_x86_64>:
	 40:       f3 0f 1e fa             endbr64
	...
0000000000000400 <poly1305_blocks_avx>:
	400:       f3 0f 1e fa             endbr64
	404:       44 8b 47 14             mov    0x14(%rdi),%r8d
	408:       48 81 fa 80 00 00 00    cmp    $0x80,%rdx
	40f:       73 09                   jae    41a <poly1305_blocks_avx+0x1a>
	411:       45 85 c0                test   %r8d,%r8d
	414:       0f 84 2a fc ff ff       je     44 <poly1305_blocks_x86_64+0x4>
	...
These are simple conditional tail-calls and *should* be recognised as
such by objtool, however due to a mistake in commit 08f87a93c8ec
("objtool: Validate IBT assumptions") this is failing.
Specifically, the jump_dest is +4, this means the instruction pointed
at will not be ENDBR and as such it will fail the second clause of
is_first_func_insn() that was supposed to capture this exact case.
Instead, have is_first_func_insn() look at the previous instruction.
