Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 01:25:01 +0200 From: Ingo Oeser <ioe-lkml@...eria.de> To: Greg KH <gregkh@...e.de> Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@...y.org> Subject: [PATCH] kobject: Replace ALL occurrences of '/' with '!' instead of only the first one. From: Ingo Oeser <ioe-lkml@...eria.de> A recent patch from Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@...y.org> replaced the first occurrence of '/' with '!' as needed for block devices. Now do some cheap defensive coding and replace all of them to avoid future issues in this area. Signed-off-by: Ingo Oeser <ioe-lkml@...eria.de> --- To answer your questions: > Do you know of block devices with more than one? No, just defensive coding :-) > Nice, care to send a follow-on patch for this?
