Message-ID: <20111221132425.11606.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw)

CVSROOT:	/cvs/lvm2
Module name:	LVM2
Changes by:	zkabelac@sourceware.org	2011-12-21 13:24:25

Modified files:
	.              : WHATS_NEW 
	lib/device     : dev-io.c 

Log message:
	Drop extra stat before open of device
	
	Since the !(dev->flags & DEV_REGULAR) code path just called
	dev_name_confirmed() which has just called 'stat()' inside,
	remove duplicate second stat() call here.
