[PATCH] kobject: quiet errors in kobject_add
People don't like released kernels yelling at them, no matter how real the error might be. So only report it if CONFIG_KOBJECT_DEBUG is enabled. Sent on request of Andrew Morton. (akpm: should bring this back post-2.6.17) Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
