[PATCH] panic: don't dump stack twice on warn

Before commit 3f388f28639f ("panic: dump registers on panic_on_warn"),
__warn() was calling show_regs() when regs was not NULL, and
show_stack() otherwise.

After that commit, show_stack() is called regardless of whether
show_regs() has been called or not, leading to duplicated Call Trace:

Only call show_stack() when regs is NULL.
