[PATCH] x86_64: Add compat_printk and sysctl to turn off compat layer warnings
Sometimes e.g. with crashme the compat layer warnings can be noisy. Add a way to turn them off by gating all output through compat_printk that checks a global sysctl. The default is not changed. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
