Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mtd: powernv_flash: Use WARN_ON_ONCE() rather than BUG_ON()
Date: Wed, 7 Jun 2017 15:43:54 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170607054355.10590-1-cyrilbur@gmail.com> (raw)
BUG_ON() should be reserved in situations where we can not longer
guarantee the integrity of the system. In the case where
powernv_flash_async_op() receives an impossible op, we can still
guarantee the integrity of the system.

I think patches to powernv_flash have gone through MPE in the past -
is this still correct?
