From 2e9c47cd4d451c57868c898672802eec9867ae1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Beulich Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 23:27:32 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] floppy: tolerate DMA channel unavailability The floppy driver is already written to be able to operate in virtual DMA mode. Thus it can easily be adjusted to tolerate failure from fd_request_dma() as long as virtual DMA mode is not disallowed.
