[PATCH 2/6] trace syscalls: Convert redundant syscall_nr checks into WARN_ON

From: Ian Munsie
Date: Wed Feb 02 2011 - 02:12:28 EST


From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@xxxxxxxxxxx>

With the ftrace events now checking if the syscall_nr is valid upon
initialisation it should no longer be possible to register or unregister
a syscall event without a valid syscall_nr since they should not be
created. This adds a WARN_ON_ONCE in the register and unregister
functions to locate potential regressions in the future.
