kobject_uevent: remove warning in init_uevent_argv()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit b410418 upstream.

syzbot can trigger the WARN() in init_uevent_argv() which isn't the
nicest as the code does properly recover and handle the error.  So
change the WARN() call to pr_warn() and provide some more information on
what the buffer size that was needed.
