Subject[PATCH] mptfusion: enable no_write_same in scsi_host_template
Date
When using a virtual SCSI disk in a VMWare VM if blkdev_issue_zeroout is used
data can be improperly zeroed out using the mptfusion driver. This patch
disables write_same for this driver which ensures that manual zeroing out
is used instead.
