Vincent Mailhol 9ce02f0fc6 x86/bug: Prevent shadowing in __WARN_FLAGS
The macro __WARN_FLAGS() uses a local variable named "f". This being a
common name, there is a risk of shadowing other variables.

For example, GCC would yield:

For reference, sparse also warns about it, c.f. [1].

This patch renames the variable from f to __flags (with two underscore
prefixes as suggested in the Linux kernel coding style [2]) in order
to prevent collisions.

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 Restructured Text 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.
