Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] nfit, address-range-scrub: add module option to skip initial ars
Date: Sat, 07 Apr 2018 08:46:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <152311596756.35426.7076649397069507532.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <152311595210.35426.13667585208560808244.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com>

After attempting to quickly retrieve known errors the kernel proceeds to
kick off a long running ARS. Add a module option to disable this
behavior at initialization time, or at new region discovery time.
Otherwise, ARS can be started manually regardless of the state of this
setting.
