[PATCH 21/22] Staging: hv: Introduce a function to map channel properties onto block device info

From: K. Y. Srinivasan
Date: Wed Apr 06 2011 - 20:17:59 EST


In preparation for removing the IDE details from the block driver, implement
a function that maps channel properties to block device information.
