[PATCH 2.6.10-rc3] sys_ioctl: Add an unlocked_ioctl file operation

[PATCH 2.6.10-rc3] sys_ioctl: Add an unlocked_ioctl file operation

[Mike Werner]

# This is a BitKeeper generated diff -Nru style patch.
#
# Add an unlocked_ioctl file operation
# It assumes if unlocked_ioctl is defined in fops
# then the driver can handle concurrency and
# lock_kernel isn't called.
#
# Signed-off-by: Mike Werner  <werner@sgi.com>
