I tend to agree. unlikely anyone backports printk message updates. I have quickly glanced through stable-4.9 and haven't seen such backports. well, may be there are some. can tweak the warning a bit, probably. e.g. "if you are planning to backport your change to kernels older than 4.14 then ignore this warning". but not sure if it's worth it. -ss -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-parisc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
