[PATCH] acpi: fix single linked list manipulation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch fixes single linked list manipulation for sub_driver.
If the remving entry is not on the head of the sub_driver list,
it goes into infinate loop.

Though that infinate loop doesn't happen. Because the only user of
acpi_pci_register_dirver() is acpiphp.
