commit 78a7f8a709542c419ca2bd5ac180bb82f515ee6d

    panic: Expose "warn_count" to sysfs
    
    commit 8b05aa26336113c4cea25f1c333ee8cd4fc212a6 upstream.
    
    Since Warn count is now tracked and is a fairly interesting signal, add
    the entry /sys/kernel/warn_count to expose it to userspace.
