Subject: llc: remove noisy WARN from llc_mac_hdr_init
Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2014 16:30:52 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140128213052.GA10689@redhat.com> (raw)

Sending malformed llc packets triggers this spew, which seems excessive.

Until 2009, this was a printk, when it was changed in
bf9ae5386bc: "llc: use dev_hard_header".

Let userland figure out what -EINVAL means by itself.
