Andrew Morton d69a892268 [PATCH] Fix WARN_ON / WARN_ON_ONCE regression 
Tim and Ananiev report that the recent WARN_ON_ONCE changes cause increased
cache misses with the tbench workload.  Apparently due to the access to the
newly-added static variable.

Rearrange the code so that we don't touch that variable unless the warning is
going to trigger.

Also rework the logic so that the static variable starts out at zero, so we
can move it into bss.

It would seem logical to mark the static variable as __read_mostly too.  But
it would be wrong, because that would put it back into the vmlinux image, and
the kernel will never read from this variable in normal operation anyway.
Unless the compiler or hardware go and do some prefetching on us?

For some reason this patch shrinks softirq.o text by 40 bytes.
