Hi,

> It is very common that FAT code is using following pattern:
> if (disk_{read|write}() < 0)
>         return -1;
> 
> Up till now the above code was dead, since disk_{read|write) could
> only return value >= 0.
> As a result some errors from medium layer (i.e. eMMC/SD) were not
> caught.
> 
> The above behavior was caused by block_{read|write|erase} declared at
> struct block_dev_desc (@part.h). It returns unsigned long, where 0
> indicates error and > 0 indicates that medium operation was correct.
> 
> This patch as error regards 0 returned from block_{read|write|erase}
> when nr_blocks is grater than zero. Read/Write operation with
> nr_blocks=0 should return 0 and hence is not considered as an error.

Are there any more questions regarding this patch? I'd be more than
happy if it would be added to v2015.10 :-).
