Quoting from the comment describing the WARN functions in
include/asm-generic/bug.h:
* WARN(), WARN_ON(), WARN_ON_ONCE, and so on can be used to report
* significant kernel issues that need prompt attention if they should ever
* appear at runtime.
*
* Do not use these macros when checking for invalid external inputs
The (buggy) firmware tables which the dmar code was calling WARN_TAINT
for really are invalid external inputs. They are not under the kernel's
control and the issues in them cannot be fixed by a kernel update.
So logging a backtrace, which invites bug reports to be filed about this,
is not helpful.
