Subject: [PATCH] exit early in floppy_init when no floppy exists
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ef16b5194f3233a11851180cd82eafb76542047d;p=linux-beck.git

[PATCH] exit early in floppy_init when no floppy exists

modprobe -v floppy on a Apple G5 writes incorrect stuff to dmesg:

Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 2.88M

The reason is that the legacy io check happens very late,
when part of the floppy stuff is already initialized.
check_legacy_ioport() returns either -ENODEV right away, or it walks
the device-tree looking for a floppy node.
