From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>
Hi all,
this is a huge patchset for something which is really trivial - it
changes the notifier registration routines to return an error value
if a notifier callback is already present on the respective list of
callbacks. For more details scroll to the last patch.
Everything before it is converting the callers to check the return value
of the registration routines and issue a warning, instead of the WARN()
notifier_chain_register() does now.
Before the last patch has been applied, though, that checking is a
NOP which would make the application of those patches trivial - every
maintainer can pick a patch at her/his discretion - only the last one
enables the build warnings and that one will be queued only after the
preceding patches have all been merged so that there are no build
warnings.
Due to the sheer volume of the patches, I have addressed the respective
patch and the last one, which enables the warning, with addressees for
each maintained area so as not to spam people unnecessarily.
If people prefer I carry some through tip, instead, I'll gladly do so -
your call.
And, if you think the warning messages need to be more precise, feel
free to adjust them before committing.
Thanks!
