Objtool doesn't know how to read C jump tables, so it has to whitelist functions which use them, causing missing ORC unwinder data for such functions, e.g. ___bpf_prog_run(). C jump tables are very similar to GCC switch jump tables, which objtool already knows how to read. So adding support for C jump tables is easy. It just needs to be able to find the tables and distinguish them from other data. To allow the jump tables to be found, create an __annotate_jump_table macro which can be used to annotate them. The annotation is done by placing the jump table in an .rodata..c_jump_table section. The '.rodata' prefix ensures that the data will be placed in the rodata section by the vmlinux linker script. The double periods are part of an existing convention which distinguishes kernel sections from GCC sections.
