x86/debug: Implement __WARN() using UD0



By using "UD0" for WARN()s we remove the function call and its possible
__FILE__ and __LINE__ immediate arguments from the instruction stream.

Total image size will not change much, what we win in the instruction
stream we'll lose because of the __bug_table entries. Still, saves on
I$ footprint and the total image size does go down a bit.

      text    data       filename
  10702123    4530992    defconfig-build/vmlinux.orig
  10682460    4530992    defconfig-build/vmlinux.patched

(UML didn't seem to use GENERIC_BUG at all, so remove it)
