Problem Details: binfmt_elf_fdpic seems to have grabbed a hard-coded hack from an ancient version of binfmt_elf in order to try and fix up initial stack alignment on multi-threaded x86, which while in addition to being unused, was also pushed down beyond the first set of operations on the stack pointer, negating the en...

Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: usb: turn dev_warn+WARN_ON combos into dev_WARN
Problem Details: dev_WARN is both compacter and gives better debug information than just a WARN_ON, since people and tools will copy the device information message together with the WARN_ON in bug reports.

Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: debug: use dev_WARN() rather than WARN_ON() in device_pm_add()
Problem Details: device_pm_add() has a WARN_ON that is showing relatively high on kerneloops.org, but unfortunately the WARN_ON is less than useful in that it doesn't print any information about what device is causing the issue. This patch fixes this by turning the WARN_ON() into the newly introduces dev_WARN() which ...
