-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: "Theodore Ts'o" (cherry picked from commit 2842c3b5449f31470b61db716f1926b594fb6156) This is a short-term warning, and even printk_ratelimit() can result in too much noise in system logs. So only print it once as a warning.
