objtool: Fix false positive warnings related to sibling calls

With some configs [1], objtool prints a bunch of false positive warnings
like:

  arch/x86/events/core.o: warning: objtool: x86_del_exclusive()+0x0: frame pointer state mismatch

For some reason this config has a bunch of sibling calls.  When objtool
follows a sibling call jump, it attempts to compare the frame pointer
state.  But it also accidentally compares the FENTRY state, resulting in
a false positive warning.
