I've now hit again a firmware crash with ath10k with the latest firwmare
and kernel and the *only* thing that helped recovery was a full reboot,
so that is a crystal clear case that this needs to taint the kernel, and
yes we do want to inform users too, so I've just added uevent support
for a few panic / taint events in the kernel now and rolled into my
series. I'll run some final tests and then post this as a follow up.

devlink didn't cut it, its networking specific.
