Reviewed-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <[email protected]> The patch also saves us some additional memory on !PRINTK configs. For example things like this if (kobj->state_initialized) { /* do not error out as sometimes we can recover */ printk(KERN_ERR "kobject (%p): tried to init an initialized " "object, something is seriously wrong.\n", kobj); dump_stack(); } now we won't have that dump_stack() call, which does not seems to be doing anything useful anyway when printk() is not available. -ss
