Dmitry Safonov fd4eeb30b9 objtool: Print bfd_vma as unsigned long long on ia32-x86_64 cross build
When objtool is cross-compiled in ia32 container for x86_64 target it
fails with the following errors:

> disas.c: In function 'disas_print_addr_sym':
> disas.c:173:38: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'bfd_vma' {aka 'long long unsigned int'} [-Werror=format=]

Provide a correct printf-fmt depending on sizeof(bfd_vma).

Ingo Molnar 6ec33db1aa objtool: Fix segfault on unknown alternatives

And crashes due to blindly dereferencing alt->insn->alt_group.

Bail out on NULL ->alt_group, which produces this warning and continues
with the disassembly, instead of a segfault:

Alexandre Chartre 4aae0d3f77 objtool: Fix address references in alternatives
When using the --disas option, alternatives are disassembled but
address references in non-default alternatives can be incorrect.

The problem is that alternatives are shown as if they were replacing the
original code of the alternative. So if an alternative is referencing
an address inside the alternative then the reference has to be
adjusted to the location of the original code.

Alexandre Chartre 15e7ad8667 objtool: Print addresses with alternative instructions
All alternatives are disassemble side-by-side when using the --disas
option. However the address of each instruction is not printed because
instructions from different alternatives are not necessarily aligned.

Change this behavior to print the address of each instruction. Spaces
will appear between instructions from the same alternative when
instructions from different alternatives do not have the same alignment.
