Josh Poimboeuf 7acfe53153 objtool: Improve call destination function detection
A recent clang change, combined with a binutils bug, can trigger a
situation where a ".Lprintk$local" STT_NOTYPE symbol gets created at the
same offset as the "printk" STT_FUNC symbol.  This confuses objtool:

  kernel/printk/printk.o: warning: objtool: ignore_loglevel_setup()+0x10: can't find call dest symbol at .text+0xc67

Improve the call destination detection by looking specifically for an
STT_FUNC symbol.
