Subject: [PATCH 4.19 08/36] s390/debug: avoid kernel warning on too large number of pages
Date: Tue,  7 Jul 2020 17:17:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200707145749.535952718@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200707145749.130272978@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 827c4913923e0b441ba07ba4cc41e01181102303 ]

When specifying insanely large debug buffers a kernel warning is
printed. The debug code does handle the error gracefully, though.
Instead of duplicating the check let us silence the warning to
avoid crashes when panic_on_warn is used.
