Noticing this from Sergey's question in another patch, why are you
using BUG_ON()? That's rather extreme and something we are trying to
avoid adding more of (I still need to remove the BUG_ON()s I've added
over ten years ago). I don't see why all these BUG_ON's can't be turned
into:
if (WARN_ON(x))
return;
