The patch titled ide: Fix crash on repeated reset has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is ide-fix-crash-on-repeated-reset.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ide: Fix crash on repeated reset From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Michal Miroslaw reported a problem (bugzilla #7023) where a user initiated reset while the IDE layer was already resetting the channel caused a crash, and provided a rough fix. This is a slightly cleaner version of the fix which tracks the reset state and blocks further reset requests while a reset is in progress. Note this is not a security issue - random end users can't access the ioctl in question anyway.
