I thought this is actually a fatal level error for the waitq command,
so we should use FATAL normally, and put return with the comment to
avoid confusion. It's a little rough but lesser effort.
+ return; /* just to suppress compilation warings */
And the outputs are below respectively, I think "WARNING" in a message
implies that there is a problem but the command can continue somehow.
I don't want to use it in this case.
crash> waitq kauditd_wait
waitq: cannot determine wait queue structure // INFO
waitq: WARNING: cannot determine wait queue structure // WARNING
waitq: cannot determine wait queue structure // FATAL
So I would prefer FATAL. INFO is better?
