Josh Poimboeuf f38d2e9214 x86/syscall: Mark exit[_group] syscall handlers __noreturn
[ Upstream commit 9142be9e64 ]

The direct-call syscall dispatch function doesn't know that the exit()
and exit_group() syscall handlers don't return, so the call sites aren't
optimized accordingly.

Fix that by marking the exit syscall declarations __noreturn.

Fixes the following warnings:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: x64_sys_call+0x2804: __x64_sys_exit() is missing a __noreturn annotation
  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: ia32_sys_call+0x29b6: __ia32_sys_exit_group() is missing a __noreturn annotation

Fixes: 1e3ad78334 ("x86/syscall: Don't force use of indirect calls for system calls")
