debug: add the end-of-trace marker and the module list to
Unlike oopses, WARN_ON() currently does't print the loaded modules list. This makes it harder to take action on certain bug reports. For example, recently there were a set of WARN_ON()s reported in the mac80211 stack, which were just signalling a driver bug. It takes then anther round trip to the bug reporter (if he responds at all) to find out which driver is at fault. Another issue is that, unlike oopses, WARN_ON() doesn't currently printk the helpful "cut here" line, nor the "end of trace" marker. Now that WARN_ON() is out of line, the size increase due to this is minimal and it's worth adding.
