Enable -Wunreachable-code flag to catch dead code and fix them.

1. Remove the dead code and write a comment instead:
hmm-tests.c:2033:3: warning: code will never be executed
[-Wunreachable-code]
perror("Should not reach this\n");
^~~~~~

2. ksft_exit_fail_msg() calls exit(). So cleanup isn't done. Replace it
with ksft_print_msg().
split_huge_page_test.c:301:3: warning: code will never be executed
[-Wunreachable-code]
goto cleanup;
^~~~~~~~~~~~

3. Remove duplicate inline.
pkey_sighandler_tests.c:44:15: warning: duplicate 'inline' declaration
specifier [-Wduplicate-decl-specifier]
static inline __always_inline
