The WARN_ON() check in static function create_cache() is done by its only
parent kmem_cache_create_usercopy() before calling it.
	if (...
	    WARN_ON(size < usersize || size - usersize < useroffset))
		usersize = useroffset = 0;
	...
	s = create_cache(..., size, ..., useroffset, usersize, ...);

Therefore, the WARN_ON() check in create_cache() can be safely removed.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.
This code was heavily refactored as of 6.12-rc1. Can you check if it's still
the case and send updated patch?
Thanks,
Vlastimil

It doesn't matter, because the compiler will optimize it. It just saves
the reader a little time.

It is still there. I'll post v2 later.
