Please never use WARN_ON() in new code unless the machine is really
broken and you can not do anything else here.

Wait what?  I thought that was BUG_ON.

Not whan panic-on-warn is set, which is getting more and more common
these days.

Fair enough.  What is the recommend approach to reporting a "this should
never" happen situation these days?

dev_err() and handle the error properly.
