With objtool enabled, below warnings are seen when trying to build:

drivers/crypto/vmx/aesp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: aes_p8_set_encrypt_key+0x44: unannotated intra-function call

drivers/crypto/vmx/aesp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x2448: unannotated intra-function call

drivers/crypto/vmx/aesp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x2d68: unannotated intra-function call

Skip objtool from running on this file, as
there are no calls to _mcount.

Why not fix it the same way as for other files ? Please explain.

For two main reasons:

1. Since this file comes from OpenSSL, and since it is a perl file which 
generates a .S file,  it may not
     be the best choice to make too many code changes to such files, 
unless absolutely necessary.

2. Second reason is that, at least as far as the objtool --mcount 
functionality is concerned, we do not
     have to run objtool on that file because that file does not have 
any calls to _mcount.
