svn commit: r221972 - head/sys/geom/part

[Adrian Chadd]

This also bit me on embedded platform stuff.

Is it possible to disable this by default for now and have it just warn loudly?
And/or hide the default value behind a kernel configuration variable
so we can disable it
(but still get the warnings) for now?

Thanks,


Adrian
