From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

When printing the oops for a VMAP_STACK overflow, the final call
frompage_fault_oops() does not return to the original stack, which
confuses gcc, and the unreachable() annotation leads to the end
of the function just continuing on in the next one:

arch/x86/mm/fault.o: warning: objtool: page_fault_oops() falls through to next function kernelmode_fixup_or_oops.constprop.0()

To work around the warning, add an explicit endless loop here that
objtool can detect.

I'm not sure about this one, maybe there is a way for objtool to
detect this and not warn?

Ah, I have one that puts a BUG() there, like 2190966fbc14 ("x86: Convert
unreachable() to BUG()").

For some reason this hunk went missing from that patch.
