x86/KASLR: Warn when KASLR is disabled
If KASLR is built in but not available at run-time (either due to the current conflict with hibernation, command-line request, or e820 parsing failures), announce the state explicitly. To support this, a new "warn" function is created, based on the existing "error" function.
