Subject: [PATCH] USB: ftdi_sio: Replace BKL with a mutex
Date: Tue, 2 Feb 2010 16:18:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1265123908-17092-1-git-send-email-abogani@texware.it> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100202141320.38e89229@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>
As Alan Cox have pinpointed the driver still required protection against
parallels calls to the config ioctl(). If lock is still necessary the use of
BKL is abused here. So replace BKL with a more convenient mutex.
