So I went back and forth on the annotation; and we're back to the same
we use for STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD() because that forces GCC to
actually generate the symbol.

Without that GCC IPA will go and wreck things by either making the
entire symbol go away or generating partial functions.

I'm currently doing a hard-coded list of names in objtool for this :/
But I'm having trouble with that alias crud.
