modpost: inform compilers that fatal() never returns
The function fatal() never returns because modpost_log() calls exit(1) when LOG_FATAL is passed. Inform compilers of this fact so that unreachable code flow can be identified at compile time. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org>
