printk: Tie printk_once / printk_deferred_once into .data.once for reset
In commit b1fca27d384e ("kernel debug: support resetting WARN*_ONCE") we got the opportunity to reset state on the one shot messages, without having to reboot. However printk_once (printk_deferred_once) live in a different file and didn't get the same kind of update/conversion, so they remain unconditionally one shot, until the system is rebooted. For example, we currently have: sched/rt.c: printk_deferred_once("sched: RT throttling activated\n"); ..which could reasonably be tripped as someone is testing and tuning a new system/workload and their task placements. For consistency, and to avoid reboots in the same vein as the original commit, we make these two instances of _once the same as the WARN*_ONCE instances are.
