[PATCH] jbd: Lower severity of aborted journal from EMERG to CRIT

[Lubomir Rintel]

According to Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt, KERN_EMERG is reserved for
events that render system unusable.

This is hardly the case in case of flash memory stick hardware removal without
umounting. Syslog is often configured to forward messages with EMERG severity
to all logged-in terminals, often causing unnecessary noise.
