Make it a once-off thing for now, so the warning will disable itself after it has triggered once. That will prevent the debug feature from making anyone's kernel unusable. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
