Since kernel 5a406031d0719 (2025-03-17, in 6.15), objtool calls
sendfile, but sendfile is Linux-specific and a sendfile with the
requisite capabilities is not available on other operating systems.
Provide a more portable fallback implementation to be used when
cross-building on non-Linux hosts.
This fixes:
