Subject: losetup: remove unnecessary minor number check
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2482d7dd247d33ff224f330eba0874df2895d9a6;p=util-linux

losetup: remove unnecessary minor number check

The latest kernel supports partitioned loop devices (kernel commit
476a4813cfddf7cf159956cc0e2d3c830c1507e3). Unfortunately, this change
makes minor numbers useless, because mirror number does not match with
loop device name (loop<N>).

Fortunately, losetup code does not depend on minor numbers.
