Here are the patches which update x86 instruction decoder build-time test.
As Stephen reported on linux-next, sometimes objdump decodes bad
instructions as normal. This will cause a false positive result on
x86 insn decoder test. This patches update the test as below;
 - Show more information with V=1
 - Show in which symbol the difference places.
 - Just warning instead of build failure.

Thank you,
