With the above changes, there is no "falls through" objtool warning
compiled with both clang 19 and the latest mainline clang 20.

I am somewhat surprised that changes anything because the ASSERT is not
stopping control flow so I would expect the same problem as before. I
guess it does not happen perhaps due to inlining differences? I looked

It is weird and I think it is not the correct way.

at this code briefly when I sent my initial message and I was not sure
where such a check should exist. It does not look like these functions
really do any sort of error handling.

If you are OK with it, I will send a separate formal patch to handle
this issue after doing some more testing.

It may still be worth doing this to get some initial thoughts from the
AMD DRM folks.

I think the correct way is:

Keep the current ASSERT for the aim of debugging, just add BUG() to
stop control flow if the divisor is zero.

It looks reasonable and works well both on x86 and LoongArch, there are
no the following objtool warnings:

dc_fixpt_recip() falls through to next function dc_fixpt_sinc()
spl_fixpt_recip() falls through to next function spl_fixpt_sinc()

If no more comments, I will send a separate formal patch for your
review in the next week.
