And that matters for the *caller*, why, exactly?  (Hint - the vast majority
of calls to WARN_ON() are in non-arch code, so it pretty much has to have
the same semantics on all architectures, even if the actual macro is
different)

cd /usr/src/linux &&  find include arch -type f -name '*.h' | xargs egrep 
'define.*WARN_ON'

If you're on parisc, avr32, s390, powerpc, sh, or blackfin, you'll
get the appropriate version in arch/.  If you're on anything else, you'll
get the version from include/asm-generic/bug.h

Not that it matters - you end up using it exactly the same no matter what arch.
