From df754e6af2f237a6c020c0daff55a1a609338e31 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2011 13:13:49 +0100 Subject: lockdep, bug: Exclude TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND from disabling lockdep It's unlikely that TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND causes false lockdep messages, so do not disable lockdep in that case. We still want to keep lockdep disabled in the TAINT_OOT_MODULE case: - bin-only modules can cause various instabilities in their and in unrelated kernel code - they are impossible to debug for kernel developers - they also typically do not have the copyright license permission to link to the GPL-ed lockdep code.

This was disabled as a side-effect of commit 2449b8ba0745327c5fa49a8d9acffe03b2eded69 ('module,bug: Add TAINT_OOT_MODULE flag for modules not built in-tree'). Lock debug warnings now include taint flags, so kernel developers should still be able to deflect warnings caused by out-of-tree modules. The TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE flag for non-GPL-compatible modules will still disable lock debugging.
