Munehisa Kamata b15bd8cb37 xen-blkfront: use a right index when checking requests
Since commit d05d7f4079 ("Merge branch 'for-4.8/core' of
git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block") and 3fc9d69093 ("Merge branch
'for-4.8/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block"), blkfront_resume()
has been using an index for iterating ring_info to check request when
iterating blk_shadow in an inner loop. This seems to have been
accidentally introduced during the massive rewrite of the block layer
macros in the commits.

This may cause crash like this:

Use the right index in the inner loop.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
