Great, thanks.
Due to libblkid (rightfully) using O_NONBLOCK these days when probing
devices, the floppy driver does spit loads of
[ 9.533513] floppy0: disk absent or changed during operation
[ 9.534989] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x0 phys_seg 1 prio class 0
[ 9.537206] Buffer I/O error on dev fd0, logical block 0, async page read
[ 9.546837] floppy0: disk absent or changed during operation
[ 9.548389] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x80700 phys_seg 1
and fails a mount prior to being opened without O_NONBLOCK at least once.
(Reproduction is easy with qemu-kvm.)
The patch addresses it and I would suggest it to also be backported and
applied to the active stable kernel trees.
Thanks,
