Architectures can select HAVE_NOP_MCOUNT if they choose
to nop out mcount call sites. If that config option is
selected, then --mnop is passed as an option to objtool,
along with --mcount.
Also, make sure that --mnop can be passed as an option
to objtool only when --mcount is passed.

In order to allow using objtool on cross-built kernels,
determine size of long from elf data instead of using
sizeof(long) at build time.
For the time being this covers only mcount.

Some architectures like powerpc support both endianness, it's
therefore not possible to fix the endianness via arch/endianness.h
because there is no easy way to get the target endianness at
build time.
Use the endianness recorded in the file objtool is working on.

Powerpc instructions must be word-aligned. Currently,
there is an alignment of 16 bytes (by default), and it is
much more than what is required for powerpc (4 bytes).
The default expansion of __ALIGN() macro is:
#define __ALIGN .align 4,0x90
Since Powerpc Linux does not require a 16 byte al
