It's not good to crash the machine if panic_on_warn() is set just
because someone made a stupid mistake of trying to create a sysfs file
with the same name of an existing one. This makes the automated testing
tools a lot harder to find the real bugs in the kernel.
So just print a warning out and dump the stack to get the attention of
the developer that they did something foolish. Then keep on trucking,
as this should not be a fatal error at all.
