Subject: [PATCHv2 5/6] hpsa: handle unsupported devices more gracefully
Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2017 13:19:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1502709555-15837-6-git-send-email-hare@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1502709555-15837-1-git-send-email-hare@suse.de>

From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>

Add a warning message if an unsupported device is found and the
hpsa_allow_any parameter is not set.
Also make the hpsa_allow_any parameter writeable once the hpsa
driver is loaded.
