From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 81ee85d0462410de8eeeec1b9761941fd6ed8c7b upstream. Quoting from the comment describing the WARN functions in include/asm-generic/bug.h: * WARN(), WARN_ON(), WARN_ON_ONCE, and so on can be used to report * significant kernel issues that need prompt attention if they should ever * appear at runtime. * * Do not use these macros when checking for invalid external inputs The (buggy) firmware tables which the dmar code was calling WARN_TAINT for really are invalid external inputs. They are not under the kernel's control and the issues in them cannot be fixed by a kernel update. So logging a backtrace, which invites bug reports to be filed about this, is not helpful.
