From c7a9a4847ea19d9578c8c3e81bc5ecb4adbaeb62 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "K. Y. Srinivasan" Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2011 11:25:39 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Staging: hv: Zero out the request structure on allocation As part of the cleanup of the I/O request structure, allocate them zeroed out. This fixes a bug that was introduced in the patch-set titled: Staging: hv: Cleanup-storage-drivers-phase-II. A corrected version of this patch-set was sent out earlier, however the earlier (buggy) version of this patch-set was already applied. This patch fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
