[PATCH 0/2] x86/mm/pat: don't use WARN for nopat requirement

[PATCH 0/2] x86/mm/pat: don't use WARN for nopat requirement

[Luis R. Rodriguez]

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof-IBi9RG/b67k@public.gmane.org>

Mauro, Doug,

The 0-day robot found using WARN() on built-in kernels confusing. Upon
further thought pr_warn() is better and will likely also not confuse
humans too.

Boris, provided maintainers Ack, please consider these patches.

These depend on pat_enabled() exported symbol which went in through
the x86 tree, so I suppose this also needs to go through there. This
is an example issue of cross-tree collateral evolution follow ups,
one reason why I punted the a RFD and proposal for a linux-oven [0].
In that regard I suppose follow ups like these would need to go through
that tree as well.

So why should a built-in kernel bzImage with this driver enabled but the driver 
not present print this warning?

Why not only print in a code path where we know the hardware is present? 

allyesconfig bootups are noisy enough as-is ...

Same observation as for the other patch: please only warn if the hardware is 
present and the driver tries to activate. No need to annoy others.
