From: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx> This avoids an infinite loop in free_early_partial(). Add a warning to free_early_partial to catch future problems. -v5: put back start > end back into WARN_ONCE() -v6: use one line for warning according to linus -v7: more test by -v8: remove the function name according to Johannes WARN_ONCE will print that function name.
