From: Keith Busch Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2013 22:20:56 +0000 (-0600) Subject: NVMe: Bring up cdev on set feature failure X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~176^2~5386^2~8 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7e03b124065507e72008ef294c30001eca74a031;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git NVMe: Bring up cdev on set feature failure This patch creates the character device as long as a device's admin queues are usable so a user has an opprotunity to perform administration tasks. A device may be in a state that does not allow IO and setting the queue count feature in such a state returns an error. Previously the driver would bail and the controller would be unusable.
