New Revision: 194891
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/194891

Log:
  With the fdc control device disappearing some 5 years ago, it is no
  longer useful for the FD_STYPE and FD_SOPTS ioctls to insist on being
  issued on a writable file descriptor.  Otherwise, there's no longer a
  chance to set the drive type or options when a read-only medium is
  present in the drive, as there is no way to obtain a writable fd then.
