SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN() adds an endbr leading to this layout
(leaving only the last 2 bytes of the address):

  3bff <zen_untrain_ret>:
  3bff:       f3 0f 1e fa             endbr64
  3c03:       f6                      test   $0xcc,%bl

  3c04 <__x86_return_thunk>:
  3c04:       c3                      ret
  3c05:       cc                      int3
  3c06:       0f ae e8                lfence

However, "the RET at __x86_return_thunk must be on a 64 byte boundary,
for alignment within the BTB."

Use SYM_START instead.
