Subject: missing return value check for request_region() in in2000.c
Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2006 15:11:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200603171511.10791.l.wandrebeck@free.fr> (raw)

Hi,
in drivers/scsi/in2000.c, request_region() is called without checking the return
value. Here is a patch to fix it.
Patch against 2.6.16-rc6-git8.
Please CC me on replies.
Regards.
