[PATCH] ALSA: pcm: 'BUG:' message unnecessarily triggers kerneloops

From: Tim Gardner
Date: Thu Apr 10 2014 - 14:02:59 EST


BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1305480

The kerneloops-daemon scans dmesg for common crash signatures, among
which is 'BUG:'. The message emitted by the PCM library is really a
warning, so the most expedient thing to do seems to be to change the
string.
