    x86/debug: Implement __WARN() using UD0 · 9a93848f
    Peter Zijlstra authored
    By using "UD0" for WARN()s we remove the function call and its possible
    __FILE__ and __LINE__ immediate arguments from the instruction stream.
    
    Total image size will not change much, what we win in the instruction
    stream we'll lose because of the __bug_table entries. Still, saves on
    I$ footprint and the total image size does go down a bit.

    (UML didn't seem to use GENERIC_BUG at all, so remove it)
