objtool: print out the symbol type when complaining about it
The objtool warning that the kvm instruction emulation code triggered wasn't very useful: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.o: warning: objtool: __ex_table+0x4: don't know how to handle reloc symbol type: kvm_fastop_exception in that it helpfully tells you which symbol name it had trouble figuring out the relocation for, but it doesn't actually say what the unknown symbol type was that triggered it all. In this case it was because of missing type information (type 0, aka STT_NOTYPE), but on the whole it really should just have printed that out as part of the message. Because if this warning triggers, that's very much the first thing you want to know - why did reloc2sec_off() return failure for that symbol? So rather than just saying you can't handle some type of symbol without saying what the type _was_, just print out the type number too.
