[PATCH] fs_parse: Remove pr_notice() about each validation

From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Mar 06 2020 - 19:20:07 EST


This notice fills my boot logs with scary-looking asterisks but doesn't
really tell me anything. Let's just remove it; validation errors
are already reported separately, so this is just a redundant list of
filesystems.

$ dmesg | grep VALIDATE
[ 0.306256] *** VALIDATE tmpfs ***
[ 0.307422] *** VALIDATE proc ***
[ 0.308355] *** VALIDATE cgroup ***
[ 0.308741] *** VALIDATE cgroup2 ***
[ 0.813256] *** VALIDATE bpf ***
[ 0.815272] *** VALIDATE ramfs ***
[ 0.815665] *** VALIDATE hugetlbfs ***
[ 0.876970] *** VALIDATE nfs ***
[ 0.877383] *** VALIDATE nfs4 ***
