I forgot the changelogs here. The only significant difference from v4
is the change from pr_warn() to pr_warn_once().

Changes since v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20220701084744.3002019-2-davidgow@google.com/
- Use pr_warn_once() to only log a warning the first time a module
taints the kernel with TAINT_TEST
- Loading lots of test modules is a common usecase, and this would
otherwise spam the logs too much.
- Thanks Luis.
- Remove a superfluous newline (Thanks Greg)
- Add Luis' Reviewed-by tag.

This patch was new in v4 of the series.
