metag: panic if cache aliasing possible
If the cache and page size configuration allows for cache aliasing to occur we warn on boot, but the log messages are easy to miss and will result is random crashes occuring in userland. Let's panic too in this case so that the user immediately knows they need to fix the cache configuration or configured page size. Also fix the warning messages which display the cache and page sizes to include newlines, and add the word "Potential" since an actual cache alias hasn't been detected.
