A general suggestion for the entire series: please use a commit
message that explains why this is a good idea.  Even something as
boiler-plate as "refer to commit XXX for rationale" that can be
copy-pasted into all the other commits is better than nothing,
although a self-contained message is best.  Maybe:

This patch is part of a series that moves towards a consistent use of
g_assert_not_reached() rather than an ad hoc mix of different
assertion mechanisms.

Or summarize your cover letter:

Use of assert(false) can trip spurious control flow warnings from some
versions of gcc:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/54bb02a6-1b12-460a-97f6-3f478ef766c6@xxxxxxxxxx/
Solve that by unifying the code base on g_assert_not_reached()
instead.


I'll add this to messages. Thanks.
