Linus,

# HEAD: ec1e1b6109171d1890a437481c35b2b56d2327b8 objtool: Prevent GCC from merging annotate_unreachable(), take 2

Please note that this pull request is RFC due to the top commit:

ec1e1b610917: objtool: Prevent GCC from merging annotate_unreachable(), take 2

... which is admittedly somewhat of an ad-hoc workaround for something the
compiler should have done - if there's another solution we can try that.

The other changes:

- futex race fixes

- objtool build warning fix

- two watchdog fixes: a crash fix (revert) and a /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_thresh
handling bug fix.

Thanks,

Ingo
