When !CONFIG_BUG and !HAVE_ARCH_BUG, define the generic BUG() as an
infinite loop rather than a no-op. This avoids undefined behavior if
execution ever actually reaches BUG(), and avoids warnings about code
after BUG() (such as on non-void functions calling BUG() and then
not returning).

v3: New patch in this series, incorporating Arnd's suggestion to make BUG()
always stop execution. This eliminates the new warnings currently appearing in
allnoconfig due to !CONFIG_BUG; unlike v2, this avoids using unreachable(), and
thus avoids the possibility of undefined behvior if execution actually reaches
a call to BUG().
