[parted-devel] [PATCH 1/4] loop: simplify/correct loop_clobber

[Jim Meyering]

From: Jim Meyering <meyering at redhat.com>

Before, it would clear a sector only if it recognized its own
signature.  In addition, it would continue clearing subsequent
sectors as long as loop_probe succeeded.  Now we simply clear
the first sector.
* libparted/labels/loop.c (loop_clobber): Simplify.
