mm: memcg: adjust the warning when seq_buf overflows

Currently it uses WARN_ON_ONCE() if seq_buf overflows when user reads
memory.stat, the only advantage of WARN_ON_ONCE is that the splat is so
verbose that it gets noticed.  And also it panics the system if
panic_on_warn is enabled.  It seems like the warning is just an over
reaction and a simple pr_warn should just achieve the similar effect.
