    udf: Increase UDF_MAX_READ_VERSION to 0x0260 · 7868f930
    Bartosz Taudul authored
    Some discs containing the UDF file system are unable to be mounted,
    failing with the following message:
    
      UDF-fs: error (device sr0): udf_fill_super: minUDFReadRev=260
        (max is 250)
    
    The UDF 2.60 specification [0] states in the section Basic Restrictions
    & Requirements (page 10):
    
      The Minimum UDF Read Revision value shall be at most #0250 for all
      media with a UDF 2.60 file system. This indicates that a UDF 2.50
      implementation can read all UDF 2.60 media. Media that do not have a
      Metadata Partition may use a value lower than #250.
    
    The conclusion is that the discs failing to mount were burned with a
    faulty software, which didn't follow the specification. This can be
    worked around by increasing UDF_MAX_READ_VERSION to 0x260, to match the
    Minimum Read Revision. No other changes are required, as reading UDF
    2.60 is backward compatible with UDF 2.50.
