[3.16 stable PATCH 2/2] virtio-rng: skip reading when we start to remove the device

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

 



Before we really unregister the hwrng device, reading will get stuck if
the virtio device is reset. We should return error for reading when we
start to remove the device.
