[PATCH 5/5] sysfs: don't warn on removal of a nonexistent binary file

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch (as960) removes the error message and stack dump logged by
sysfs_remove_bin_file() when someone tries to remove a nonexistent
file.  The warning doesn't seem to be needed, since none of the other
file-, symlink-, or directory-removal routines in sysfs complain in a
comparable way.
