[PATCH 7/9] loop: don't allow deleting an unspecified loop device

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Passing a negative index to loop_lookup while return any unbound device.
Doing that for a delete does not make much sense, so add check to
explicitly reject that case.
