Hi,
following your advises in your web site this is a small patch because is the
first patch I submit to this project.
The request_region value was not checked in the function
pci_check_direct(...), so I took care of it and in case of problems I return
ENODEV instead of always returning 0 (as it does now).
Any comments, suggestions, etc... are welcomed.
Cheers!
PS This patch is against kernel 2.6.14.3
