[PATCH 1/2] Introduce add_taint variant that does not print warning.

[Mahesh J Salgaonkar]

From: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mah...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Some interrupt handler's may not be happy to call printk and would lead to
unexpected behavior or kernel panic. e.g. machine_check_early() from MCE
handler on OPAL based system. Introduce add_taint variant that does not call
printk.
