From 827c4913923e0b441ba07ba4cc41e01181102303 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Borntraeger Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2020 05:57:23 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] s390/debug: avoid kernel warning on too large number of pages 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.
