Subject: [patch 02/10] Kprobes - do not use kprobes mutex in arch code
Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2007 11:56:03 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070827155850.643346344@polymtl.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070827155601.360241608@polymtl.ca

[-- Attachment #1: kprobes-dont-use-kprobes-mutex-in-arch-code.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5136 bytes --]

Remove the kprobes mutex from kprobes.h, since it does not belong there. Also
remove all use of this mutex in the architecture specific code, replacing it by
a proper mutex lock/unlock in the architecture agnostic code.
