Will do!

Makes sense. Will use pr_warn() instead.

I think this message could be a bit misleading. The problem here is
not that the relid
is invalid, but that the relid-to-channel mapping hasn't been
allocated by the second
kernel yet. An invalid relid could simply be the case where relid >=
MAX_CHANNEL_RELIDS.
May be something like:
pr_warn("relid2channel: No channels mapped for relid %d\n, relid");
would be clearer?
