That's the complete opposite of what Linus has said he wants, he said very 
specifically that he doesn't want WARN_ONCE() or WARN_ON_ONCE() for 
deprecation of tunables.  If you want to have this merged, then please get 
him to ack it.

How is WARN_ONCE() too verbose for oom_adj?  It's printed once!  And how 
can you claim that userspace doesn't need to change if it's creating a 
hierarchy while use_hierarchy == 0?
