3.16.63-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Commit c3925a3da617 "s390/dasd: fix IO error for newly defined devices" removed a cast of dasd_device::private which was not necessary in the upstream code. However, in 3.16 the type of dasd_device::private is char *, so the cast is still needed.
