No worries.
I don't mind the change at all really.

You do seem to like enhancing your reputation against
"plays well with others" kindergarten grading.

October 2016 to August 2017 is barely half that.

You seem to overestimate how often people test their

And look for documentation that shows this as a

Other than your commit log entry and some LKML chatter
I believe that you'll have a hard time finding any.

$ git grep -i KERN_CONT Documentation/
$ git grep -i pr_cont Documentation/
