From: Aaron Conole <aconole@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit fd954cc1919e35cb92f78671cab6e42d661945a3 ] As noted by Paolo Abeni, pr_warn doesn't generate any splat and can still preserve the warning to the user that feature downgrade occurred. We likely cannot introduce other kinds of checks / enforcement here because syzbot can generate different genl versions to the datapath.
