I assume '-Wdiv-by-zero' is enabled and gcc isn't showing the "division
by zero" warning for either of these? The 'ud2' is guaranteed to
trigger since the function has no branches. Surely at least the missing
warning is a gcc bug.
The good news is objtool is flushing these out, albeit with a confusing
message.
