debug warnings: print the DMI board info name in a WARN/WARN_ON

Impact: extend WARN_ON() output with DMI_PRODUCT_NAME

It's very useful for many low level WARN_ON's to find out which
motherboard has the broken BIOS etc... this patch adds a printk
to the WARN_ON code for this.

On architectures without DMI, gcc should optimize the code out.
