Yuck, sorry about that. Patch to fix it below.
This also highlights another (minor) issue: the '__unreachable' section
is meant to be a compile-time-only thing. It's supposed to be discarded
at link time, but apparently that isn't happening for modules.
I tried excluding it from linking with the .pushsection "e" flag, but no
luck. I'll try to figure out how to fix that shortly.
In the meantime, here's the fix you need. It now uses X86_64_64
relocations.

Subject: [PATCH] objtool: fix __unreachable section relocation size
Linus reported the following commit broke module loading on his laptop:
d1091c7fa3d5 ("objtool: Improve detection of BUG() and other dead ends")
It showed errors like the following:
module: overflow in relocation type 10 val ffffffffc02afc81
module: 'nvme' likely not compiled with -mcmodel=kernel
The problem is that the __unreachable section addresses are stored using
the '.long' asm directive, which isn't big enough for .text section
relative kernel addresses. Use '.quad' instead.
