RE: [PATCH] TSDEV - Don't flood dmesg with removal warnings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ignore my previous whitespace damaged patch. This one should be good.

tsdev.c warns about scheduled removal each time tsdev_open is called -
So even for a default boot I get to see the warning 3 times -

[  340.537078] tsdev (compaq touchscreen emulation) is scheduled for
removal.
[  340.537081] See Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt for details.
[  340.550314] tsdev (compaq touchscreen emulation) is scheduled for
removal.
[  340.550318] See Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt for details.
[  340.565065] tsdev (compaq touchscreen emulation) is scheduled for
removal.
[  340.565068] See Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt for details.

Move the warning to tsdev_init() from tsdev_open so we don't end up
printing a large string in dmesg everytime tsdev_open is called.
