I'd say let's only bother with the ones in fbcon.c. Avoids the trouble with having to expose the fb module option to vt.c somehow. The ones in vt.c are as old as the git history (from a quick check at least), and in my debugging they never have been annoying (or I somehow didn't ever hit them, not idea). Also note that none if this matters long-term because I have a really fancy plan to fix up this entire console_locking mess, which will also remove the need for the lockless_fb_register debug hack. -Daniel > > Regards, > > Hans > > > > > >> -Daniel >> >>>> WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED is already protected by an '#ifdef 1 ... #else >>>> ...' construct [1].
