[PATCH] fix SCSI_IOCTL_PROBE_HOST

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

 



This returns always false with new-style drivers right now.  Make it
return always true instead, as a host must be present if we are able
to call the ioctl (without a host attached there would be no device
node to call on..)
