Subject: NTFS: Some utilities modify the boot sector but do not update the checksum.
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b0d2374d62faed034dd80e6524efb98a6341597c;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

NTFS: Some utilities modify the boot sector but do not update the checksum.
      Thus, relax the checking in fs/ntfs/super.c::is_boot_sector_ntfs() to
      only emit a warning when the checksum is incorrect rather than
      refusing the mount.  Thanks to Bernd Casimir for pointing this
      problem out.
