linuxkm/Kbuild: whenENABLED_LINUXKM_PIE, use inline thunks on all objects, not just PIE objects, to resolve false-positive "unpatched thunk" warnings on some kernels/configs. also cleans up flag setup more generally.testing with
wolfssl-multi-test.sh ... '.*insmod.*'note this only resolves runtime "Unpatched return thunk in use. This should not happen!" messages on FIPS modules. there is still a
at build time with some kernels, but this is completely benign and apparently can't be fixed without altering source code to add (pointless) annotations.
