All, in https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2016-09/msg01201.html and https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2016-09/msg01210.html Andrew basically suggests that we should switch away from using ASSERT() and over to BUG_ON() in perhaps quite broad a set of cases. And honestly I'm not convinced of this: We've been adding quite a few ASSERT()s over the last years with the aim of doing sanity checking in debug builds, without adding overhead to non- debug builds. I can certainly see possible cases where using BUG_ON() to prevent further possible damage is appropriate, but I don't think we should overdo here.
