[ Upstream commit dd4b3c83b9 ]
The max data count (mdc) is an unsigned 16-bit integer value as per AR
documentation and is received via ccw_device_get_mdc() for a specific
path mask from the CIO layer. The function itself also always returns a
positive mdc value or 0 in case mdc isn't supported or couldn't be
determined.
Though, the comment for this function describes a negative return value
to indicate failures.
As a result, the DASD device driver interprets the return value of
ccw_device_get_mdc() incorrectly. The error case is essentially a dead
code path.
To fix this behaviour, check explicitly for a return value of 0 and
change the comment for ccw_device_get_mdc() accordingly.
This fix merely enables the error code path in the DASD functions
get_fcx_max_data() and verify_fcx_max_data(). The actual functionality
stays the same and is still correct.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
