I still want to keep WARN_ON_ONCE() tho.  It will help detecting
possible breakage in the many code paths prepping data vectors through
block, SCSI, DMA API and whatnot.  Silent AC_ERR_SYSTEM failure can be
pretty difficult to track down and it's not like WARN_ON_ONCE() can be
used as an attack vector.

Thanks.
