potentially somewhat more serious (or at least it looks like we might
want to do some sort of cleaning up), so I won't touch it for now.
It certainly shouldn't be a WARN, it probably shouldn't print
anything either.
Here's another patch to remove that too.
I don't actually *use* this code myself and I feel the justification
I've given for removing the WARN to be a bit weak, so if you don't take
the patch I'll just keep it in my local tree to keep it from showing up
again during fuzzing.
Thanks,
Vegard

Subject: [PATCH] xfrm: get rid of another incorrect WARN
During fuzzing I regularly run into this WARN(). According to Herbert Xu,
this "certainly shouldn't be a WARN, it probably shouldn't print anything
either".
