Subject: [PATCH 0/5] More unreachable() conversions.

Back in commit 38938c879eb0c39edf85d5164aa0cffe2874304c the new macro
unreachable() was added.  We can use it in BUG instead of a variety of
ad hoc endless loops.

This patch set consists of the patches from the original set that were
never Acked-by anyone.  Although they are completely untested, they
seem plausible.

I don't plan on pushing these things out any more, so if you
like them please merge them via your architecture trees.

I will reply with the 5 patches.

David Daney (5):
   mn10300: Convert BUG() to use unreachable()
   parisc: Convert BUG() to use unreachable()
   powerpc: Convert BUG() to use unreachable()
   alpha: Convert BUG() to use unreachable()
   blackfin: Convert BUG() to use unreachable()
