mainline inclusion from mainline-5.7-rc1 commit 26c5d78c976ca298e59a56f6101a97b618ba3539 category: bugfix bugzilla: 34247 CVE: NA
---------------------------
After request_module(), nothing is stopping the module from being unloaded until someone takes a reference to it via try_get_module().
The WARN_ONCE() in get_fs_type() is thus user-reachable, via userspace running 'rmmod' concurrently.
Since WARN_ONCE() is for kernel bugs only, not for user-reachable situations, downgrade this warning to pr_warn_once().
Keep it printed once only, since the intent of this warning is to detect a bug in modprobe at boot time. Printing the warning more than once wouldn't really provide any useful extra information.
