If user sets panic_on_warn, he wants kernel to panic if there is anything barely wrong with the kernel. KASAN-detected errors are definitely not less benign than an arbitrary kernel WARNING.
Panic after KASAN errors if panic_on_warn is set. We use this for continuous fuzzing where we want kernel to stop and reboot on any error.
