[PATCH 1/2] x86/msr: Carry on after a non-"safe" MSR access fails without !panic_on_oops

[Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>]

This demotes an OOPS and likely panic due to a failed non-"safe" MSR
access to a WARN_ON_ONCE and a return of poisoned values (in the
RDMSR case).  We still write a pr_info entry unconditionally for
debugging.

To be clear, this type of failure should *not* happen.  This patch
exists to minimize the chance of nasty undebuggable failures due on
systems that used to work due to a now-fixed CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y bug.
