When preemption is disable, call schedule() is incorrect behavior.
Suggest to panic directly rather than depend on panic_on_warn.

1. Panic directly will easily find the root cause. 

   Call scheduling in atomic affects not only performance but also
system stability. 
    ex: 
      Call scheduling in IRQ will result in IRQ enable after schedule() 

2. A lot of warnings depend on panic_on_warn. It is not practical to
set panic_on_warn=1.
