Subject: [PATCH] fat: convert to unlocked_ioctl
Date: Wed, 5 May 2010 21:55:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201005052155.17249.arnd@arndb.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87wrvitd5c.fsf@devron.myhome.or.jp>

FAT does not require the BKL in its ioctl function, which is already serialized
through a mutex. Since we're already touching the ioctl code, also fix the
missing handling of FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES in the compat code.

The chances are rather low if the maintainer confirms that the BKL
is not needed. I double-checked and found a small bug in related
code, so this does both.

The only thing the series really needs to do is to remove the
usage of the deprecated ->ioctl() operation. This patch makes
FAT simply use unlocked_ioctl but does not reintroduce the
BKL.

Does that look better?
