Dumping a big ftrace buffer could lead to a RCU stall. So there is the
ftrace buffer and the stall information which needs to be printed. When
there is additionaly a WARN_ON() which describes the reason for the ftrace
buffer dump and the WARN_ON() is executed _after_ ftrace buffer dump, the
information get lost in the middle of the RCU stall information.
Therefore print WARN_ON() message before dumping the ftrace buffer in
rcu_torture_writer().
