objtool is throwing *unannotated intra-function call*
warnings with a few instructions that are marked
unreachable. Replace unreachable() with __builtin_unreachable()
to fix these warnings, as the codegen remains same
with unreachable() and __builtin_unreachable().

Should you add barrier_before_unreachable() before
__builtin_unreachable() to avoid stack bombs ?

See commit 173a3efd3edb ("bug.h: work around GCC PR82365 in BUG()")
Yes, adding barrier_before_unreachable() before __builtin_unreachable()

works around the build issues reported at 
https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/8/25/418.

I'll post a v2 with this change.

Thanks for the suggestion!
