Subject: [PATCH 05/11] drbd: Fix the maximum accepted minor device number
Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2011 23:57:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1318629472-11110-6-git-send-email-philipp.reisner@linbit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1318629472-11110-1-git-send-email-philipp.reisner@linbit.com>

From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@linbit.com>

The maximum minor device number allowed by the kernel is (1<<20 - 1).  Reject
device numbers higher than that to earlier catch possible errors.
