panic: unset panic_on_warn inside panic()
In the current code, the following three places need to unset panic_on_warn before calling panic() to avoid recursive panics: kernel/kcsan/report.c: print_report() kernel/sched/core.c: __schedule_bug() mm/kfence/report.c: kfence_report_error() In order to avoid copy-pasting "panic_on_warn = 0" all over the places, it is better to move it inside panic() and then remove it from the other places.
