x86/kexec: Mark machine_kexec() with __nocfi
A recent commit caused the relocate_kernel() function to be invoked through
a function pointer, but it does not have CFI information. The resulting trap
occurs after the IDT and GDT have been invalidated, leading to a triple-fault
if CONFIG_CFI_CLANG is enabled.
Using SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START() to provide the CFI information looks like it will
require a prolonged battle with objtool. And is fairly pointless anyway, as
the actual signature comes from a __kcfi_typeid_… symbol emitted from the
C code based on the function prototype it thinks that relocate_kernel has,
rendering the check somewhat tautological.
The simple fix is just to mark machine_kexec() with __nocfi.
