When building kselftests/capabilities the following warning shows up:

test_execve.c:94:27: note: initialize the variable 'have_outer_privilege' to silence this warning
bool have_outer_privilege;
^
= false

Rework so all the ksft_exit_*() functions have attribue
'__attribute__((noreturn))' so the compiler knows that there wont be
any return from the function. That said, without
'__attribute__((noreturn))' the compiler warns about the above issue
since it thinks that it will get back from the ksft_exit_skip()
function, which it wont.
Cleaning up the callers that rely on ksft_exit_*() return code, since
the functions ksft_exit_*() have never returned anything.

This case is weird (pre-existing-ly) and looks broken. The assignment
to ret should probably occur _before_ the out: label. Honestly, I'd
remove the use of goto from this function and just call either
ksft_exit_pass() or ksft_exit_fail().

I can do that in a followup patch.


Let's fold this change in. Please send me v3 with.
