Subject: [PATCH v2] init: Do not warn on non-zero initcall return
Date: Wed, 01 May 2013 13:35:51 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1367429751.30667.99.camel@gandalf.local.home> (raw)

Commit f91eb62f71 "init: scream bloody murder if interrupts are enabled
too early" added three new warnings. The first two seemed reasonable,
but the third included a warning when an initcall returned non-zero.
Although, the third WARN() does include an imbalanced preempt disabled,
or irqs disable, it shouldn't warn if it only had an initcall that just
returns non-zero.

In fact, according to Linus, it shouldn't print at all. As it only
prints with initcall_debug set, and that already shows enough
information to fix things.
