I'll be removing this #warning from advansys when I get rid of the
last bus_to_virt.  Which I've already done ... it's just that the
resulting driver works on i386, but crashes parisc, so there's clearly a
bug.  I haven't had time to track it down yet.  So NACK this patch.

Well, two main questions...

Is this warning of value to anybody but you?
Is this information worth printing out on everyone else's kernel build?

If yes, great!  But it sounds like this warning is analagous to

  #warning willy's TODO list: get milk, buy groceries, read email, ...

which doesn't add much value to others' kernel builds :)
