Subject: [PATCH 05/18] alpha: kill big kernel lock
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 21:40:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1284493213-7263-6-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1284493139-7233-1-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de>
All uses of the BKL on alpha are totally bogus, nothing
is really protected by this. Remove the remaining users
so we don't have to mark alpha as 'depends on BKL'.
