Subject: [PATCH V2 2/2] blk-mq: avoid one WARN_ON in __blk_mq_run_hw_queue to printk
Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2018 00:41:52 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180117164152.7066-3-ming.lei@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180117164152.7066-1-ming.lei@redhat.com>
We know this WARN_ON is harmless and in reality it may be trigged,
so convert it to printk() and dump_stack() for avoiding to confuse
people.
Also add comment about two releated races here.
