Subject: [PATCH 08/18] parisc: remove big kernel lock
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 21:40:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1284493213-7263-9-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1284493139-7233-1-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de>
The parisc version of the perf code is sufficiently
protected by its own spinlock, no need to use the BKL.
