Subject: [PATCH] Fix ax25_get_socket locking
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2005 08:37:44 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050314083744.GA12765@linux-mips.org> (raw)

In an attempt to return a locked socket ax25_get_socket() was calling
lock_sock() with a spinlock held, bad idea.  Making matters worse it's
only user is running in bottom half context resulting in a potencial
attempt to sleep in bottom half context, so fix the locking there as well.
