linux-next: hdparm -B <value> broken

[Sabrina Dubroca <sd@queasysnail.net>]

Hello,

Since next-20140823:

# hdparm -B 200 /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
 setting Advanced Power Management level to 0xc8 (200)
 HDIO_DRIVE_CMD failed: Bad address
 APM_level      = 128


It looks like before commit 2cada584b200 ("block: cleanup error
handling in sg_io"), we had ret = 0 before entering the last big if
block of sg_io, and now ret = -EFAULT.

The following patch seems to fix the problem:


diff --git a/block/scsi_ioctl.c b/block/scsi_ioctl.c

 	if (hdr->iovec_count) {

Thanks,
