From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Before the refactoring the pr_warn() only triggered when someone explicitly tried to write to a BIOS locked limit. After the refactoring the warning is also triggering during system resume. The user can't do anything about this so printing scary warnings doesn't make sense Keep the printk but make it pr_debug() instead of pr_warn() to make it clear it's not a serious issue.
