This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb-storage/SCSI: Add broken_fua blacklist flag to the 3.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: usb-storage-scsi-add-broken_fua-blacklist-flag.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From b14bf2d0c0358140041d1c1805a674376964d0e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2014 11:04:21 -0400 Subject: usb-storage/SCSI: Add broken_fua blacklist flag MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit b14bf2d0c0358140041d1c1805a674376964d0e0 upstream. Some buggy JMicron USB-ATA bridges don't know how to translate the FUA bit in READs or WRITEs. This patch adds an entry in unusual_devs.h and a blacklist flag to tell the sd driver not to use FUA.
