------------------------------------------------------ From: OGAWA Hirofumi hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp Subject: fat: avoid oops when bdi->io_pages==0
On one system, there was bdi->io_pages==0. This seems to be the bug of a driver somewhere, which perhaps failed to initialize io_pages. We should fix it though - it is better to avoid the divide-by-zero Oops.
So add a check for this.
