Is there really no attribute or builtin that can be used to do this
without assembly?
IIUC from other patches the symbol tables will contain the "real"
non-cfi entry points (unless we explciitly asked to make the jump table
address canonical), so AFAICT here the compiler should have all the
necessary information to generate either the CFI or non-CFI entry point
addresses, even if it doesn't expose an interface for that today.
It'd be a lot nicer if we could get the compiler to do this for us.
Thanks,
Mark.
