Subject: [PATCH] selftests: Mark ksft_exit_fail_perror() as __noreturn
Date: Sun, 14 Apr 2024 11:26:53 +0500

Let the compilers (clang) know that this function would just call
exit() and would never return. It is needed to avoid false positive
static analysis errors. All similar functions calling exit()
unconditionally have been marked as __noreturn.

This patch has been suggested [1] and tested on top of the following
patches:
- f07041728422 ("selftests: add ksft_exit_fail_perror()") which is
  in kselftest tree already
- ("kselftest: Mark functions that unconditionally call exit() as
  __noreturn") would appear in tip/timers/urgent
