Description Dmitry Torokhov 2018-04-12 21:24:28 UTC

Newer kernels emit bind/unbind uevents when driver is bound or unbound from a driver. They are not of interest to upowerd and it should ignore them, but unfortunately it logs unknown messages with severity "warning". We should lower it to "debug": "be liberal with what you accept".

linux: lower severity of "unhandled action" messages

Newer kernels emit bind/unbind uevents that are not of interest to
powerd. To avoid littering logs with scary messages, let's lower their
severity to "debug".

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I already committed your patch to master :/
