Last time I looked at the code, patch 3/3 was adding some fairly noisy debug
prints to various syscalls and pieces of signal handling. e.g.:


diff --git a/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c b/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c
index 76cbb05..ea207df 100644
--- a/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c
+++ b/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c
@@ -102,6 +102,7 @@ int kernel_execve(const char *filename,
 	 * We were successful.  We won't be returning to our caller, but
 	 * instead to user space by manipulating the kernel stack.
 	 */
+	pr_info("we were successful\n");
 	asm(	"add	r0, %0, %1\n\t"
 		"mov	r1, %2\n\t"
 		"mov	r2, %3\n\t"


Can we drop these bits please?
