Subject: [PATCH] hda - fail ELD reading early
Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2011 16:46:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111122084623.GA30050@localhost> (raw)

With the ELD repoll mechanism, we can (and should) fail the ELD reading
immediately when find something obviously wrong and let the caller retry
after some delay.
