[PATCH v2] Add CFI to x86_64 RTLD_START
- From: Keno Fischer <keno at juliacomputing dot com>

- Subject: [PATCH v2] Add CFI to x86_64 RTLD_START
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
The application's entry point already has the appropriate CFI to
indicate to tools that the end of the stack has been reached. This
CFI was lacking from the dynamic linker, causing garbled backtraces
after hitting _dl_start. Fix this by adding the appropriate CFI.
While we're here, reformat the assembly to make it clearer what is and
isn't part of the string literal.
Example gdb output before:
```
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00007f10a2cee2d0 in _start () from /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
#1 0x0000000000000003 in ?? ()
#2 0x00007ffd2ba54ce9 in ?? ()
#3 0x00007ffd2ba54d04 in ?? ()
#4 0x00007ffd2ba54d07 in ?? ()
#5 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
```
after:
```
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00007f36273551b0 in _start () from
/home/kfischer/replacement-usr/lib/ld-2.23.90.so
```

Changes from V1:
Reformat the assembly, to make it clearer what is string literal and what
isn't.
