[patch] ide: fix kmalloc_node breakage in ide driver

From: Ravikiran G Thirumalai
Date: Wed Aug 03 2005 - 20:28:34 EST


Machines with ide-interfaces which do not have pci devices are crashing on boot
at pcibus_to_node in the ide drivers. We noticed this on a x445 running
2.6.13-rc4. Similar issue was discussed earlier, but the crash was due
to hwif being NULL.

Andi and Christoph had patches, but neither went in. Here's one of those
patches with an added BUG_ON(hwif == NULL). Please include.

Thanks,
Kiran


Patch fixes oops caused by ide interfaces not on pci. pcibus_to_node causes
the kernel to crash otherwise. Patch also adds a BUG_ON to check if hwif is
NULL.
