Rename .data.once to .data..once to fix resetting WARN*_ONCE
Commit b1fca27d384e ("kernel debug: support resetting WARN*_ONCE") added support for clearing the state of once warnings. However, it is not functional when CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION or CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled, because .data.once matches the .data.[0-9a-zA-Z_]* pattern in the DATA_MAIN macro. Commit cb87481ee89d ("kbuild: linker script do not match C names unless LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is configured") was introduced to suppress the issue for the default CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=n case, providing a minimal fix for stable backporting. We were aware this did not address the issue for CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=y. The plan was to apply correct fixes and then revert cb87481ee89d. [1] Seven years have passed since then, yet the #ifdef workaround remains in place. Meanwhile, commit b1fca27d384e introduced the .data.once section, and commit dc5723b02e52 ("kbuild: add support for Clang LTO") extended the #ifdef. Using a ".." separator in the section name fixes the issue for CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION and CONFIG_LTO_CLANG.
