Subject: USB: change dev_WARN to dev_err triggerable from user space
Date: Tue,  4 Sep 2018 10:44:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180904084441.3970-1-oneukum@suse.com> (raw)

For those people who run with panic_on_warn a WARN() triggered
from user space is a DOS. It is worth returning to dev_err()
