[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] monitordisk: don't log when not monitoring a filesystem for inodes

[Ross Burton]

Writing a log that the filesystem isn't being monitored for inode usage just
confuses users who are not aware about the nature of inodes in their filesystem,
so don't say anything, just silently disable the monitor.  In general this only
happens on filesystems which don't have a limit on inodes.
