objtool is throwing *unannotated intra-function call*
warnings with a few instructions that are marked
unreachable. Remove unreachable() from WARN_ON()
to fix these warnings, as the codegen remains same
with and without unreachable() in WARN_ON().
Did you try the two exemples described in commit 1e688dd2a3d6
("powerpc/bug: Provide better flexibility to WARN_ON/__WARN_FLAGS() with
asm goto") ?

The builtin variant of unreachable (__builtin_unreachable()) works.

How about using that instead of unreachable() ?
