By now I also submitted a patch with extra spaces. Which one would be a
better candidate for applying in a maintainer's tree (which tree?)?

first version without extra spaces?

Hello,
I'm trying to read a 4KB block using __bread from a SATA device but I get
the following error:
__find_get_block_slow() failed. block=1, b_blocknr=0
b_state=0x0029, b_size=4096
If I try to read a 2K block (which is the hard sector size of the device),
it works fine.

interface extensively for configuring the 9p in-kernel servers (patch

subdirectories for authenticating users and mapping user names to
uids...
Thanks,
