The WARN_ON macros are used at the entry functions state2power() and set_cur_state(). state2power() is called with the max_state retrieved from get_max_state which returns cpufreq_cdev->max_level, then it check if max_state is > cpufreq_cdev->max_level. The test does not really makes sense but let's assume we want to make sure to catch an error if the code evolves. However the WARN_ON is overkill. set_cur_state() is also called from userspace if we write to the sysfs. It is easy to see a stack dumped by just writing to sysfs /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/cur_state a value greater than "max_level". A bit scary. Returing -EINVAL is enough. Remove these WARN_ON.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
