From 15534d3803993345d8db32246ec329d8f83502e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2005 22:02:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH 2/3] cciss: bug fix for BIG_PASS_THRU Applications using CCISS_BIG_PASSTHRU complained that the data written was zeros. The problem is that the buffer is being cleared after the user copy, unless the user copy has failed... Correct that logic.
