[patch for 2.6.30? 1/2] cpufreq: powernow-k8 cleanup msg if BIOS does not export ACPI _PSS cpufreq data

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Thomas Renninger <trenn@xxxxxxx>

- Make the message shorter and easier to grep for
- Use printk_once instead of WARN_ONCE (functionality of these was mixed up)

Also see bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13146
for reference.
