From 7eec77a1816a7042591a6cbdb4820e9e7ebffe0e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2011 19:43:59 +0200 Subject: ide: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for ide-gd and ide-cd check_events() implementations in both ide-gd and ide-cd are inadequate for in-kernel event polling. Both generate media change events continuously when certain conditions are met causing infinite event loop between the driver and userland event handler. As disk event now supports suppression of unlisted events, simply de-listing DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE from disk->events resolves the problem. Internal handling around media revalidation will behave the same while userland will fall back to userland event polling after detecting the device doesn't support disk events.
