Pkg xen devel - Jul 2016 - Bug#829739: blktap-dkms fails to build due to block_device_operations release signature missmatch

Package: blktap-dkms
Version: 2.0.93-0.6
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu yakkety ubuntu-patch

Dear Maintainer,

With later compilers a missmatch between the block_device_operations release
operations definition and the signature of the implementation triggers a build
failure.

We are using the attached patch to resolve this in Ubuntu:
    
  * d/p/follow-block_device_operations-release-return-void.patch -- follow
    upstream interface changes in block_device_operations.

Thanks.
