Geert, my crosstool don't produce warning below. I guess this has to do
something with compiler version.

- Geert noticed following warning during compilation.

Âdrivers/block/amiflop.c:1344: warning: ârqâ may be used uninitialized in
Âthis function
Âdrivers/block/ataflop.c:1402: warning: ârqâ may be used uninitialized in
Âthis function

- Initialize rq to NULL to fix the warning. If we can't find a suitable request
Âto dispatch, this function should return NULL instead of a possibly garbage
Âpointer.

Thanks, gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 now no longer gives a warning.

- Cross compile tested only. Don't have hardware to test it.

Floppy hardware in bad state here :-(
