[PATCH 3.10 088/103] target: Dont allow setting WC emulation if device doesnt support

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jun 04 2014 - 19:27:48 EST


3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Grover <agrover@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 07b8dae38b09bcfede7e726f172e39b5ce8390d9 upstream.

Just like for pSCSI, if the transport sets get_write_cache, then it is
not valid to enable write cache emulation for it. Return an error.
