[PATCH 4/7] sn_hwperf: kill BKL usage
in [Kernel]
|
Prev: [PATCH] ehci: Disable wake on overcurrent (WKOC_E)
Next: [PATCH 0/6] BKL pushdown into ioctl, continued
From: Arnd Bergmann on 27 Apr 2010 10:30 This driver always gave up the BKL in its ioctl function, so just convert it to unlocked_ioctl and remove the BKL here.
