Currently it uses WARN_ON_ONCE() if seq_buf overflows when user reads memory.stat, the only advantage of WARN_ON_ONCE is that the splat is so verbose that it gets noticed. And also it panics the system if panic_on_warn is enabled. It seems like the warning is just an over reaction and a simple pr_warn should just achieve the similar effect.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
