break the blkdev_open() path.

It could be that we also need to add a bdput() into blkdev_open() if
do_open() failed (to balance blkdev_open()'s bd_acquire()).

It's pretty damn ugly that do_open() attempts to fix up the caller's
refcounting.

[PATCH] Remove bdput from do_open() in fs/block_dev.c

2007-08-04 Thread Rafał Bilski

I mistyped
# echo /dev/hdc1 >/sys/module/block2mtd/parameters/block2mt
instead of sdc1. There is no /dev/hdc1. I have DVD-ROM as /dev/hdc.
# dmesg
block2mtd: version $Revision: 1.30 $
block2mtd: error: cannot open device /dev/hdc1
Looks right, but tray is locked. And it doesn't want to get out.
# eject
hdc: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }

Removing bdput from do_open() in fs/block_dev.c seems 
to be a cure for irq timeout.
