Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Remove BUG_ON from n_tty_read()
Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2012 12:01:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120816110146.774.73249.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120816110130.774.87642.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

From: Stanislav Kozina <skozina@redhat.com>

Change the BUG_ON to WARN_ON and return in case of tty->read_buf==NULL. We want to track a
couple of long standing reports of this but at the same time we can avoid killing the box.
