GEM_WARN_ON currently has dangerous semantics where it is completely compiled out on !GEM_DEBUG builds. This can leave users who expect it to be more like a WARN_ON, just without a warning in non-debug builds, in complete ignorance. Another gotcha with it is that it cannot be used as a statement. Which is again different from a standard kernel WARN_ON. This patch fixes both problems by making it behave as one would expect. It can now be used both as an expression and as statement, and also the condition evaluates properly in all builds - code under the conditional will therefore not unexpectedly disappear. To satisfy call sites which really want the code under the conditional to completely disappear, we add GEM_DEBUG_WARN_ON and convert some of the callers to it. This one can also be used as both expression and statement. >From the above it follows GEM_DEBUG_WARN_ON should be used in situations where we are certain the condition will be hit during development, but at a place in code where error can be handled to the benefit of not crashing the machine. GEM_WARN_ON on the other hand should be used where condition may happen in production and we just want to distinguish the level of debugging output emitted between the production and debug build. v2: * Dropped BUG_ON hunk.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
