objtool: Fix false-positive "ignoring unreachables" warning

There's no need to try to automatically disable unreachable warnings if
they've already been manually disabled due to CONFIG_KCOV quirks.

This avoids a spurious warning with a KCOV kernel:

  fs/smb/client/cifs_unicode.o: warning: objtool: cifsConvertToUTF16.part.0+0xce5: ignoring unreachables due to jump table quirk

Fixes: eeff7ac61526 ("objtool: Warn when disabling unreachable warnings")
