Subject: [PATCH] incorrect return from ia64_pci_legacy_write()
Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2005 22:21:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1135203696.4180.12.camel@localhost> (raw)

Tony,

   Maybe there's time for one more push to Linus?  The function
ia64_pci_legacy_write() returns 0 for everything except errors.  This
return value gets sent back to the user from pci_write_legacy_io(),
making it look like every write fails.  The trivial patch below copies
the behavior of the SGI sn machvec and does what would be expected from
something implementing a write() function.  Please apply, Thanks,

	Alex
