Hi. (I have not been able to determine a probable maintainer for this code.) The following patch makes drivers/scsi/aha1740.c use the return code of request_region instead of check_region. The change necessitated some changes to the folllowing error paths so I changed those to be forwards gotos.

2001-01-22 Thread Oliver Neukum
Hi list, as the big kernel lock is no longer held during open, scsi_unregister_module races with open. I've discussed this with David Hinds. It will affect the pcmcia scsi drivers. The patch I've attached grabs the big kernel lock and returns error codes in case unregistering fails. Failure wi
