Subject: [PATCH] BUG_ON() bad input to request_irq
Date: Thu, 17 Jan 2008 17:59:58 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200801171759.59029.rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200801171757.59026.rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

Is there any reason why these bugs should be treated gently?  The
caller might not want to check NR_IRQS and IRQ_NOREQUEST cases, but
a NULL handler or NULL dev_id w/ shared are coding bugs.
