Hi Ingo & lists,
due to the xor.c cleanup in 2.4.0-test11-pre5+, raid5 compiled into the
kernel fails when booting, because the calibrate_xor_block function
hasn't been called while registering a raid5 volume; this leads to a
panic, as no checksumming function has been chosen.
Here's a tiny patch to restore that functionality, can you apply it?
Regards,
