Annotate the function prototype and definition as noreturn to prevent
objtool warnings like:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: hyperv_init+0x55c: unreachable instruction
Also, as per Josh's suggestion, add it to the global_noreturns list.
As a comparison, an objdump output without the annotation:
[...]
1b63: mov $0x1,%esi
1b68: xor %edi,%edi
1b6a: callq ffffffff8102f680 <hv_ghcb_terminate>
1b6f: jmpq ffffffff82f217ec <hyperv_init+0x9c> # unreachable
1b74: cmpq $0xffffffffffffffff,-0x702a24(%rip)
[...]
Now, after adding the __noreturn to the function prototype:
[...]
17df: callq ffffffff8102f6d0 <hv_ghcb_negotiate_protocol>
17e4: test %al,%al
17e6: je ffffffff82f21bb9 <hyperv_init+0x469>
[...] <many insns>
1bb9: mov $0x1,%esi
1bbe: xor %edi,%edi
1bc0: callq ffffffff8102f680 <hv_ghcb_terminate>
1bc5: nopw %cs:0x0(%rax,%rax,1) # end of function

V3:
- As per Michael / Josh advice (thanks!), added __noreturn to the
function definition as well.
V2:
- Per Josh's suggestion (thanks!), added the function name to the
objtool global table.
Thanks in advance for reviews/comments!
Cheers,
Guilherme
