objtool: Handle another GCC stack pointer adjustment bug



The kbuild bot reported the following warning with GCC 4.4 and a
randconfig:

  net/socket.o: warning: objtool: compat_sock_ioctl()+0x1083: stack state mismatch: cfa1=7+160 cfa2=-1+0

This is caused by another GCC non-optimization, where it backs up and
restores the stack pointer for no apparent reason:

    2f91:       48 89 e0                mov    %rsp,%rax
    2f94:       4c 89 e7                mov    %r12,%rdi
    2f97:       4c 89 f6                mov    %r14,%rsi
    2f9a:       ba 20 00 00 00          mov    $0x20,%edx
    2f9f:       48 89 c4                mov    %rax,%rsp

This issue would have been happily ignored before the following commit:

  dd88a0a0 ("objtool: Handle GCC stack pointer adjustment bug")

But now that objtool is paying attention to such stack pointer writes
to/from a register, it needs to understand them properly.  In this case
that means recognizing that the "mov %rsp, %rax" instruction is
potentially a backup of the stack pointer.
