What about: [PATCH] kvm-s390: fix printk on SIGP set arch From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@xxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx> KVM on s390 does not support the ESA/390 architecture. We refuse to change the architecture mode and print a warning. This patch removes the printk for several reasons: o A malicious can flood host dmesg o The old message had no newline o there is no connection between the message and the failing guest This patch simply removes the printk. We already set the condition code to 3 - the guest knows that something went wrong.
