From edb5e5f63d80c368467e4a0628c5b6d30f1673eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lars Ellenberg Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2015 21:35:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] drbd: fix spurious alert level printk When accessing out meta data area on disk, we double check the plausibility of the requested sector offsets, and are very noisy about it if they look suspicious. During initial read of our "superblock", for "external" meta data, this triggered because the range estimate returned by drbd_md_last_sector() was still wrong.
