Subject[PATCH] signal: improve warning about using SI_TKILL in rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo
Date
Sending SI_TKILL from rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo was deprecated, so now we
issue a warning on the first attempt of doing it. We use WARN_ON_ONCE,
which is not informative and, what is worse, taints the kernel, making
the trinity syscall fuzzer complain false-positively from time to time.

This patch therefore substitutes the WARN_ON_ONCE with a pr_warn_once.
