From da541b20021c781f8b65492eeaee824e729599eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Wed, 27 Sep 2017 17:34:23 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Skip unreachable warnings for GCC 4.4 and older The kbuild bot occasionally reports warnings like: drivers/scsi/pcmcia/aha152x_core.o: warning: objtool: seldo_run()+0x130: unreachable instruction These warnings are always with GCC 4.4. That version of GCC sometimes places unreachable instructions after calls to noreturn functions. The unreachable warnings aren't very important anyway. Just ignore them for old versions of GCC.
