Now some new KCOV warnings are showing up with GCC 14: vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: cpuset_write_resmask() falls through to next function cpuset_update_active_cpus.cold() drivers/usb/core/driver.o: error: objtool: usb_deregister() falls through to next function usb_match_device() sound/soc/codecs/snd-soc-wcd934x.o: warning: objtool: .text.wcd934x_slim_irq_handler: unexpected end of section All are caused by GCC KCOV not finishing an optimization, leaving behind a never-taken conditional branch to a basic block which falls through to the next function (or end of section). At a high level this is similar to the unreachable warnings mentioned above, in that KCOV isn't fully removing dead code. Treat it the same way by adding these to the list of warnings to ignore with CONFIG_KCOV.
