Ilie Halip 14db1f0a93 objtool: Ignore unreachable trap after call to noreturn functions
With CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP enabled, the compiler may insert a trap
instruction after a call to a noreturn function. In this case, objtool
warns that the UD2 instruction is unreachable.

This is a behavior seen with Clang, from the oldest version capable of
building the mainline x64_64 kernel (9.0), to the latest experimental
version (12.0).

Objtool silences similar warnings (trap after dead end instructions), so
so expand that check to include dead end functions.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
