Yeah, I think your analysis is spot on, as this was introduced by a
change in clang from a few months ago according to my bisect:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/37932643abab699e8bb1def08b7eb4eae7ff1448

Since the ASSERT does not do anything to prevent the divide by zero (it
just flags it with WARN_ON) and the rest of the code doesn't either, I
assume that the codegen stops as soon as it encounters the unreachable
that change created from the path where divide by zero would occur via

  dc_fixpt_recip() ->
    dc_fixpt_from_fraction() ->
      complete_integer_division_u64() ->
        div64_u64_rem()

Shouldn't callers of division functions harden them against dividing by
zero?

Yes I think it'd be the correct solution.

Thank you all. Do you mean like this?

With the above changes, there is no "falls through" objtool warning
compiled with both clang 19 and the latest mainline clang 20.

If you are OK with it, I will send a separate formal patch to handle
this issue after doing some more testing.

Thanks,
