Subject: [PATCH 2.6] drivers/block/floppy.c: Premature blk_queue_max_sectors()
Date: Fri, 21 May 2004 21:59:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040521195934.GA17681@mars> (raw)

Hi,

We're prematurely pampering the request queue before
checking whether it was indeed allocated successfully.

Against 2.6.6. Thanks.
