small diff bug in prepatch-2.2.6-2 (fwd)
There is a small bug in the pre-patch-2.2.6-2 patch, if anyone is
upgrading from 2.2.5.
Check out the forwarded message. (I removed the attachement since
sending a 200k file to a few hundreds of users is stupid).

P.S. The file I downloaded dated Apr 13 (if they manage to fix it before
you download).

Hi,
On line 20204 of the original pre-patch there was a mistake, i.e., the
whole line shouldn't have been there:
The line was:
+ CF_LE_W(b->info_sector), logical_sector_size);
If you look at the fs/fat/inode.c portion of the patch, you'll see it was
probably some unintentional mistake.
I don't know who maintains the pre-patches of 2.2.x, so I'm sending this
to you.
Attached is the fixed (yes, it was really hard ;) patch.
