Subject: [PATCH 00/14] Improve WARN_ON_ONCE() output by adding the condition string

This series improves the current WARN_ON_ONCE() output from:

  WARN_ON_ONCE(idx < 0 && ptr);
  ...

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/core.c:8511 sched_init+0x20/0x410

to (on all __WARN_FLAGS() using architectures except S390):

  WARNING: [idx < 0 && ptr] kernel/sched/core.c:8511 at sched_init+0x20/0x410 CPU#0: swapper/0

(Note the addition of the '[condition string]', and a reorganized CPU/comm/PID trailer.)

... and on S390 and non-__WARN_FLAGS architectures to:

  WARNING: kernel/sched/core.c:8511 at sched_init+0x20/0x410 CPU#0: swapper/0

and on non-x86 architectures (the CPU/PID fields in the WARNING line are skipped):

  WARNING: kernel/sched/core.c:8511 sched_init+0x20/0x410
  CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 6.14.0-01616-g94d7af2844aa #4 PREEMPT(undef)

The motivation behind this series is the SCHED_WARN_ON() primitive that
got removed in this merge window:

  f7d2728cc032 ("sched/debug: Change SCHED_WARN_ON() to WARN_ON_ONCE()")

... which produced more informative debug output, as it included the
WARN_ON_ONCE() condition string - at the expense of worse code generation.

This series, based on Linus's latest Git tree, merges the code generation
benefits of modern WARN_ON_ONCE() bug_entry architecture code with the expanded
information content of SCHED_WARN_ON().

The cost is about +100K more .data on a defconfig kernel, and no runtime
code generation impact:

       text       data        bss         dec        hex    filename
   29523998    7926322    1389904    38840224    250a7a0    vmlinux.x86.defconfig.before
   29523998    8024626    1389904    38938528    25227a0    vmlinue.x86.defconfig.after

The series was build and boot tested on x86, with an expectation for it to
work on other architectures (with limited cross-testing on the affected
architectures).
