yes, that is why I said that we need to cleanup the call-pathes.
And since it requires some effort we either could save WARN_ON_ONCE
here (so it hit us everyday provoking to do cleanup) and keep
in mind that it's expected behaviour at moment, or if it's that
annoying -- remove it (though it would be just a hidding of code
defect I think). Unfortunatelly I have a number of tasks to be done
before I could start such a checking/cleanups.
