A new warning has been introduced on x86_64; we've seen it with GCC 8, 11, 12, and Clang 16.

   arch/x86/kernel/smp.o: warning: objtool: sysvec_reboot()+0x54: unreachable instruction

Bisection pointed towards "x86: Mark stop_this_cpu() __noreturn" (upstream commit f9cdf7ca57cada055f61ef6d0eb4db21c3f200db). Reverting this commit did remove the warning.

Reproducer:

   tuxmake \
     --runtime podman \
     --target-arch x86_64 \
     --toolchain gcc-11 \
     --kconfig https://storage.tuxsuite.com/public/linaro/lkft/builds/2MhGKYH63pYIllJIDAxH3FsvakK/config
