objtool: Validate disassembler headers in libopcodes probegrafted
commit 3f2de814c059 ("objtool: Fix libopcodes linking with static libraries") tested for libopcodes availability by linking a test snippet with a forward declaration of disassemble_init_for_target(). However, testing symbol linkage with an extern declaration only verifies the presence of the library (.so/.a) and bypasses checking for development headers (binutils-dev). On systems where libopcodes is present without development headers installed, the probe succeeds, enabling BUILD_DISAS. Subsequent compilation of objtool then fails: fatal error: 'bfd.h' file not found 113 | #include <bfd.h> Additionally, the probe invokes $(HOSTCC) without $(HOSTCFLAGS), ignoring any sysroot or include flags specified for the host compiler. Fix this by including <bfd.h> and <dis-asm.h> directly in the test snippet, passing $(HOSTCFLAGS) so host compiler options are respected, and defining PACKAGE="objtool" to satisfy the configuration check in <bfd.h>.

+Date: May 2014
+Contact: Yoshihiro YUNOMAE <yoshihiro.yunomae.ez@hitachi.com>
+Description:
+ Shows current RX interrupt trigger bytes or sets the
+ user specified value to change it for the FIFO buffer.
+ Users can show or set this value regardless of opening the
+ serial device file or not.
+
+ The RX trigger can be set one of four kinds of values for UART
+ serials. When users input a meaning less value to this I/F,
+ the RX trigger is changed to the nearest lower value for the
+ device specification. For example, when user sets 7bytes on
+ 16550A, which has 1/4/8/14 bytes trigger, the RX trigger is
+ automatically changed to 4 bytes.
