Subject: x86/speculation, objtool: Annotate indirect calls/jumps for objtool on 32-bit kernels

From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com>

commit a14bff131108faf50cc0cf864589fd71ee216c96 upstream.

In the following commit:

  9e0e3c5130e9 ("x86/speculation, objtool: Annotate indirect calls/jumps for objtool")

... we added annotations for CALL_NOSPEC/JMP_NOSPEC on 64-bit x86 kernels,
but we did not annotate the 32-bit path.

Annotate it similarly.
