Miguel Ojeda 7c00621dca compiler_types: mark __compiletime_assert failure as __noreturn
`__compiletime_assert` declares a fake `extern` function
which appears (to the compiler) to be called when the test fails.

Therefore, compilers may emit possibly-uninitialized warnings
in some cases, even if it will be an error anyway (for compilers
supporting the `error` attribute, e.g. GCC and Clang >= 14)
or a link failure (for those that do not, e.g. Clang < 14).

Annotating the fake function as `__noreturn` gives them
the information they need to avoid the warning,
e.g. see https://godbolt.org/z/x1v69jjYY.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
