[PATCH 1/2] ataflop: potential out of bounds in do_format()

From: Dan Carpenter
Date: Wed Apr 21 2021 - 06:18:56 EST


The function uses "type" as an array index:

q = unit[drive].disk[type]->queue;

Unfortunately the bounds check on "type" isn't done until later in the
function. Fix this by moving the bounds check to the start.

Fixes: bf9c0538e485 ("ataflop: use a separate gendisk for each media format")
