The startup_xen() kernel entry point is referenced by the ".note.Xen"
section, and is the real entry point of the VM. Control transfer is
through IRET, which *could* set NEED_ENDBR, however Xen currently does
no such thing.
Add ANNOTATE_NOENDBR to silence future objtool warnings.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
