Would it be useful to make this accept any string possibly with a
format? Otherwise, the reason will always need to be a constant string
here.

I'm fine with printing more detailed info via pr_warn() or so, if
that's an unreasonable request.

[...]

This looks good to me. One question I'd have is: will this work in
test_init functions? Because in the KCSAN test, the test setup
determines if we have enough CPUs, and then causes test_init to return
a non-zero error code.

Thanks,
