From 25a2001a285e187d99ea347693bedd73b3e0722a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiko Carstens Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2006 17:00:28 +0200 Subject: [S390] tape class return value handling. Without this patch register_tape_dev() will always fail, but might return a value that is not an error number. This will lead to accesses to already freed memory areas...
