From 9213784b48f8ba666b4695ca3f5d34f583daab83 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2018 08:26:00 -0700 Subject: rcu: Eliminate BUG_ON() for kernel/rcu/tree_plugin.h The tree_plugin.h file has a number of calls to BUG_ON(), which panics the kernel, which is not a good strategy for devices (like embedded) that don't have a way to capture console output. This commit therefore converts these BUG_ON() calls to WARN_ON_ONCE() and WARN_ONCE(). Reported-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Paul E.
