Subject[PATCH] remove error message on illegal ioctl
From
Date
This error message is uber annoying and needs to go.  Non-root can flood
the console with this junk on invalid SCSI CD-ROM ioctl(),
and that is exactly what gnome-cd does.

An illegal ioctl() returns an error to the program. That is
sufficient - we do not need KERN_ERROR warnings all over the place.
Especially when any user can cause them at any rate.

This patch, against 2.5.51, removes the message. Linus, please
apply.
