objtool: Skip unreachable warnings for 'alt' instructions When a whitelisted function uses one of the ALTERNATIVE macros, it produces false positive warnings like: arch/x86/kvm/vmx.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0x0: unreachable instruction arch/x86/kvm/svm.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0x6e: unreachable instruction There's no easy way to whitelist alternative instructions, so instead just skip any 'unreachable' warnings associated with them.
