Subject: [PATCH] ipmi: fix inconsistent spinlock usage
Date: Fri, 11 Nov 2005 08:12:21 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051111141221.GA6497@i2.minyard.local> (raw)
Linus,
An obvious bug. Thanks, Hironobu.
Part of a patch was accidentally reverted, this corrects an
inconsistent spinlock use in the IPMI message handler.
