From 05b4149433ffae789edaf569da8d998c93eed1aa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kiszka Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2010 10:12:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] CAPI: Rework locking of capidev members Rename 'ncci_list_mtx' to 'lock', expressing that it now protects a larger set of capidev members: the NCCI list, ap.applid (ie. the registration of the application), and modifications of userflags. We do not need to protect each and every check for ap.applid because, once an application is registered, it will stay for the whole lifetime of the device. Also, there is no need to apply the capidev mutex during release (if there could be concurrent users, we would crash them anyway by freeing the device at the end of capi_release).
