The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 4.9-stable tree.
I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.
I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to stable@vger.kernel.org and let me know why this patch should be applied. Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be seen again.
I should have adjusted the commit message. KERN_WARN doesn't exist so it actually fixes a build error as well as switching to pr_warn().
What build error? I have not heard of this breaking the build on 4.9 for the past year, is it in some config that no one uses? :)
thanks,
