Subject: [PATCH v2 02/43] powerpc/traps: Declare unrecoverable_exception() as
 __noreturn

unrecoverable_exception() is never expected to return, most callers
have an infiniteloop in case it returns.

Ensure it really never returns by terminating it with a BUG(), and
declare it __no_return.

It always GCC to really simplify functions calling it. In the exemple
below, it avoids the stack frame in the likely fast path and avoids
code duplication for the exit.

With this patch:
