Did you try the two exemples described in commit 1e688dd2a3d6
("powerpc/bug: Provide better flexibility to WARN_ON/__WARN_FLAGS() with
asm goto") ?

The builtin variant of unreachable (__builtin_unreachable()) works,
and the codegen remains the same.

How about using that instead of unreachable() ?
