Subject: [SCSI] sd: fix cache flushing on module removal (and individual device removal)
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.19-rc1~1266^2~19^2~38
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=85b6c720b0931101c8bcc3a5abdc2b8514b0fb4b;p=linux-2.6

[SCSI] sd: fix cache flushing on module removal (and individual device removal)

The fix isn't actually in sd: it's in scsi_device_get().  I modified it
to allow devices to be returned in SDEV_CANCEL, but not SDEV_DEL.  This
means that the device_remove_driver, which occurs in device_del() in
scsi_remove_device() after the device has gone into SDEV_CANCEL is now
effective at flushing the cache.
