Did the "Call Trace" not show up?

I have no fundamental issue adding ip to this, but let's keep it
WARN_ONCE (so we notice loudly and so we get the call trace) and use
%pF or whatever it's called instead of %lx.

Also, I want to add a variant of WARN that takes pt_regs as parameters
at some point.  You'd get much better output.  Even without that, Josh
Poimboeuf and I (mainly Josh) have some work slowly afoot that will
greatly improve call trace quality when crossing an exception
boundary.
