From: Alan Cox Date: Sat, 12 Dec 2009 10:32:36 +0000 (+0000) Subject: tty: Fix BKL taken under a spinlock bug introduced in the BKL split X-Git-Tag: v2.6.33-rc1~292 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6698e34720660e18b45e2e3b115ee4584d0c3b5e;p=pandora-kernel.git tty: Fix BKL taken under a spinlock bug introduced in the BKL split The fasync path takes the BKL (it probably doesn't need to in fact) while holding the file_list spinlock. You can't do that with the kernel lock: it causes lock inversions and deadlocks. Leave the BKL over that bit for the moment. Identified by AKPM.
