Have you tried compiling this? IIRC you said you would compile your
stuff, what hapened to that?

What exactly were you trying to achieve? Did this BUG_ON detect a
problem on your system and now you are trying to silence it?

The change would be wrong even if it compiled since it would just
execute the assertion only when debug is disabled.
