Build error: compile with latest gcc version #25

Description

With gcc-9 and gcc-10, kernel is not able to build. Major error is like this:

  1. error: ‘-mindirect-branch’ and ‘-fcf-protection’ are not compatible
  2. warning: objtool: $(CODE_LOCATION): sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame

First error can suppress by this patch:

diff --git a/Linux-DSM-4.18/Makefile b/Linux-DSM-4.18/Makefile

However, the second warning can't be suppressed by this one. vmlinux and bzImage is come out normally, but I didn't test it so I'm not sure it works properly.
