[PATCH v3 1/4] block: Add a helper to validate the block size

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

 



There are some duplicated codes to validate the block
size in block drivers. This limitation actually comes
from block layer, so this patch tries to add a new block
layer helper for that.
