Subject: [PATCH] panic: suppress gnu_printf warning

with GCC 13.2.1 and W=1, there's compiling warning like this:

kernel/panic.c: In function ‘__warn’:
kernel/panic.c:676:17: warning: function ‘__warn’ might be a candidate for ‘gnu_printf’ format attribute [-Wsuggest-attribute=format]
  676 |                 vprintk(args->fmt, args->args);
      |                 ^~~~~~~

The normal __printf(x,y) adding can't fix it. So add workaround which
disables -Wsuggest-attribute=format to mute it.
