Subject: [PATCH 1/5] objtool: Fix CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP unreachable warnings

CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP causes GCC to emit a UD2 whenever it encounters an
unreachable code path.  This includes __builtin_unreachable().  Because
the BUG() macro uses __builtin_unreachable() after it emits its own UD2,
this results in a double UD2.  In this case objtool rightfully detects
that the second UD2 is unreachable:

  init/main.o: warning: objtool: repair_env_string()+0x1c8: unreachable instruction

We weren't able to figure out a way to get rid of the double UD2s, so
just silence the warning.
