objtool: Fix another stack overflow in validate_branch()
[ Upstream commit 9a73f085dc91980ab7fcc5e9716f4449424b3b59 ] The insn state is getting saved on the stack twice for each recursive iteration. No need for that, once is enough. Fixes the following reported stack overflow: drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_dbg.o: error: SIGSEGV: objtool stack overflow! Segmentation fault Fixes: 70589843b36f ("objtool: Add option to trace function validation") Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/90956545-2066-46e3-b547-10c884582eb0@app.fastmail.com Link: https://patch.msgid.link/8b97f62d083457f3b0a29a424275f7957dd3372f.1772821683.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
