|
| PM: Remove WARN_ON from device_pm_add
|
| Fix message in device_pm_add() saying that the device will not be
| added to dpm_list, although in fact the device is going to be added
| to the list regardless of the ordering violation.
|
| Remove the WARN_ON(true) triggered in that situation, because it is
| hit by USB very often and spams the users' logs.
|
| This patch fixes bug #11263

+               if (dev->parent->power.status >= DPM_SUSPENDING)
+                       dev_warn(dev, "parent %s should not be sleeping\n",
                                dev->parent->bus_id);
-                       WARN_ON(true);
-               }


i.e. no bug was fixed in reality - we still emit a kernel log entry, but 
the WARN_ON() was removed, so that it does not fall under the scope of 
kerneloops.org, right?
