I have no idea what is actually going on here, but building an x86 kernel
with CONFIG_MATOM results in countless warnings from objtool, such as

arch/x86/events/intel/ds.o: warning: objtool: intel_pmu_pebs_del()+0x43: call without frame pointer save/setup

I have not looked at whether this is a bug in gcc or in objtool, however
I found that not using -mtune=atom reliably avoids the problem. I could
reproduce the problem with gcc versions 4.7 through 6.1.
