That makes sense. I can offer something like bellow which is simple
enough to use and update.

Otherwise you could have per arch targets, but since the generic part of
objtool uses arch specific headers, you'll have to rebuild object files
between two arch builds anyway.

Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Add target to test build of different architectures

To make sure support for other architecture doesn't break when updating
objtool, it's useful to have a shorthand to build the different objtool
configuration.

Add a target that can be called from the top level as such:

    $ make tools/objtool/build-test
