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.
