[PATCH] genhd: Handle part_tbl and part pointers correctly

From: Bart Van Assche <hidden>
Date: 2016-09-26 03:31:06
Subsystem: block layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Linus Torvalds

This patch ensures that sparse does not complain about disk->part_tbl
manipulations nor about part_tbl->part accesses.

Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <redacted>
