    vfs: Remove incorrect debugging WARN in prepend_path · 93e3bce6
    Eric W. Biederman authored
    The warning message in prepend_path is unclear and outdated.  It was
    added as a warning that the mechanism for generating names of pseudo
    files had been removed from prepend_path and d_dname should be used
    instead.  Unfortunately the warning reads like a general warning,
    making it unclear what to do with it.
    
    Remove the warning.  The transition it was added to warn about is long
    over, and I added code several years ago which in rare cases causes
    the warning to fire on legitimate code, and the warning is now firing
    and scaring people for no good reason.
