Subject: [PATCH printk v2 23/26] panic: Mark emergency section in warn

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

Mark the full contents of __warn() as an emergency section. In
this section, the CPU will not perform console output for the
printk() calls. Instead, a flushing of the console output is
triggered when exiting the emergency section.
