With CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP enabled, the compiler may insert a trap
instruction after a call to a noreturn function. In this case, objtool
warns that the UD2 instruction is unreachable.

This is a behavior seen with Clang, from the oldest version capable of
building the mainline x64_64 kernel (9.0), to the latest experimental
version (12.0).

Objtool silences similar warnings (trap after dead end instructions), so
so expand that check to include dead end functions.
