[PATCH 1/2] firewire: core: WARN on wrong usage of core transactionfunctions

From: Stefan Richter
Date: Wed Oct 14 2009 - 14:40:54 EST


In the code path which creates request packets, clearly mark a switch
branch which must never be reached with a WARN.

In the code path which creates response packets, replace a BUG by a
friendlier to debug WARN.
