[PATCH] remove message: POSIX conformance testing by UNIFIX

[Randy.Dunlap]

Remove the outdated "POSIX conformance testing by UNIFIX" message.

There is a general desire to reduce the quantity of noisy and/or
outdated kernel boot-time messages...

Suggested by Andi Kleen.

That's a stubborn line.  Andrew already tried to remove it
once, with a patch I believe he called:

  delete-posix-conformance-testing-by-unifix-message.patch

in his 2.6.6 *-mm series.  But that patch was neutered by
some glitch.

You're right - we have concensus on this change.

OK, I didn't know what happened to it...
(That patch was from me also.)
