Subject: [2.6.6-rc3-mm2] genhd-unregister warn handling
Date: Thu, 06 May 2004 20:02:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1083866562.5865.6.camel@bluerhyme.real3> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 223 bytes --]

Andrew,

	Here's a patch against 2.6.6-rc3-mm2 genhd.c unregister_blkdev

	-Standardize function for void xxx
	-Split uncorresponding return
	-Add printks
	-Merge kfree to positive case

	Could you apply ?

Regards,
Fabian
