sched/all: Change all BUG_ON() instances in the scheduler to WARN_ON_ONCE()
There's no good reason to crash a user's system with a BUG_ON(),
chances are high that they'll never even see the crash message on
Xorg, and it won't make it into the syslog either.
By using a WARN_ON_ONCE() we at least give the user a chance to report
any bugs triggered here - instead of getting silent hangs.
None of these WARN_ON_ONCE()s are supposed to trigger, ever - so we ignore
cases where a NULL check is done via a BUG_ON() and we let a NULL
pointer through after a WARN_ON_ONCE().
There's one exception: WARN_ON_ONCE() arguments with side-effects,
such as locking - in this case we use the return value of the
WARN_ON_ONCE(), such as in:
- BUG_ON(!lock_task_sighand(p, &flags));
+ if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!lock_task_sighand(p, &flags)))
+ return;
