Description

A warning condition was found in the IBM Power RAID (ipr) SCSI driver. When pci_register_driver() fails during module initialization, the reboot notifier callback is not unregistered, causing a kernel warning on subsequent load attempts.

Statement

This produces a kernel warning, not a crash. It only occurs when driver registration fails, which is rare. The warning indicates a double-registration attempt but does not compromise system stability or security.
