From 5214b729e1c2dc3af8f55e6c4c548844c3bea0f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Schnelle Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2008 14:15:55 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] afs: prevent double cell registration kafs doesn't check if the cell already exists - so if you do an echo "add newcell.org 1.2.3.4" >/proc/fs/afs/cells it will try to create this cell again. kobject will also complain about a double registration. To prevent such problems, return -EEXIST in that case.
