Rename .data.once to .data..once to fix resetting WARN*_ONCE

Commit b1fca27d38 ("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 cb87481ee8 ("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 cb87481ee8. [1]

Seven years have passed since then, yet the #ifdef workaround remains in
place. Meanwhile, commit b1fca27d38 introduced the .data.once section,
and commit dc5723b02e ("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.
