Subject: Subject: [PATCH] block: fix __blkdev_get() for removable devices
Date: Tue, 04 Nov 2008 13:16:07 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <490FCC87.1070205@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <9ea470500811030956k209b2f2ci10bcde1ea4ac7334@mail.gmail.com>
Commit 0762b8bde9729f10f8e6249809660ff2ec3ad735 moved disk_get_part()
in front of recursive get on the whole disk, which caused removable
devices to try disk_get_part() before rescanning after a new media is
inserted, which might fail legit open attempts or give the old
partition.
This patch fixes the problem by moving disk_get_part() after
__blkdev_get() on the whole disk.
This problem was spotted by Borislav Petkov.
