Subject: [PATCH 5/5] sysfs: don't warn on removal of a nonexistent binary file
Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2007 15:10:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11878206634149-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <11878206493042-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de>

From: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

This patch (as960) removes the error message and stack dump logged by
sysfs_remove_bin_file() when someone tries to remove a nonexistent
file.  The warning doesn't seem to be needed, since none of the other
file-, symlink-, or directory-removal routines in sysfs complain in a
comparable way.
