I don't think I've ever heard of anyone managing to overflow the printk buffer and it's hard to imagine how a sane person could manage to do this. I assume this is happening because of changes in your other patchset, and that this change is hence associated with those changes and should probably be a part of the same patch series? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
