Until someone thinks to remove it, it seems. There is no established protocol or period. Often someone will say "hey, this is silly" and will remove it - usually as part of some wider work. If you think a BUG or BUG_ON doesn't need to be there any more, feel free to send a patch.. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
