From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 19:35:07 +0000 (-0300) Subject: V4L/DVB: dvb-core: kill the big kernel lock X-Git-Tag: v2.6.37-rc1~64^2~359 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e4e62b35b8cf008f47ffd240d04bde654d289a46;p=pandora-kernel.git V4L/DVB: dvb-core: kill the big kernel lock The dvb core only uses the big kernel lock in the open and ioctl functions, which means it can be replaced with a dvb specific mutex. Fortunately, all the ioctl functions go through dvb_usercopy, so we can move the serialization in there.
