Subject: staging: rtl8187se: Change panic to warn when RF switch turned off
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.33.8~307
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=86e2f6345053ce66ab9a4b735f3029d445eaed70;p=karo-tx-linux.git

staging: rtl8187se: Change panic to warn when RF switch turned off

commit f36d83a8cb7224f45fdfa1129a616dff56479a09 upstream.

This driver issues a kernel panic over conditions that do not
justify such drastic action. Change these to log entries with
a stack dump.

This patch fixes the system crash reported in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/674285.
