mm/shmem: downgrade final i_blocks check in shmem_evict_inode() to pr_warn()

shmem_evict_inode() ends with WARN_ON(inode->i_blocks) as a final
consistency check of shmem's block accounting.  When it fires, the
inode-local counters die with the inode; what may linger is a small
residue in accounting kept outside the inode, such as per-mount or
per-user charges.  No data is lost, and no corruption follows.

On kernels running with panic_on_warn=1, this accounting inconsistency
escalates to a full machine panic, which is disproportionate to the
impact.

Downgrade the WARN_ON() to a pr_warn() that reports the inode together
with its accounting counters (i_blocks, alloced, swapped, nrpages),
keeping the inconsistency visible in the logs.

The accounting bugs this check has caught over the years -- the swapout
race described in commit 0f3c42f522dc ("tmpfs: change final i_blocks BUG
to WARNING") and the error recovery race fixed in commit 267a4c76bbdb
("tmpfs: fix shmem_evict_inode() warnings on i_blocks") -- are real and
should still be fixed; this change only removes the disproportionate
escalation.

One way to hit this race: soft_offline_in_use_page()'s fast path drops a
clean, unmapped shmem folio via mapping_evict_folio(), where the
xas_store() and the nrpages decrement are not atomic against a concurrent
shmem_evict_inode(); the final shmem_recalc_inode() can then read the
pre-decrement nrpages, compute freed = 0, and leave one page charged. 
Same class as the races in 0f3c42f522dc and 267a4c76bbdb, this time in the
under-count direction; reproduced on 7.2-rc4 with
madvise(MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) racing MAP_FIXED replacement of a
shared-anonymous VMA.
