I am very ignorant and stupid. That's why I am doing it without thinking why or why not de irqsave is ok in that region or not.
And the results are: include/asm-i386/ide.h ide_default_io_base(): blaat: interrupts were disabled@49 include/asm-i386/ide.h ide_default_io_base(): blaat: interrupts were disabled@51 include/asm-i386/ide.h ide_default_io_base(): blaat: interrupts were disabled@59
Meaning: it works.
Repeating: I am very stupid, so I don't know if saving the irq state is ok or not in down_read. -- program signature; begin { telegraaf.com } writeln("<ard@telegraafnet.nl> TEM2"); end . - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
