Subject: [PATCH] ext3: remove the BKL in ext3/ioctl.c
Date: Thu, 08 Jan 2009 14:54:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <496605AF.7020002@gmx.net> (raw)

(Please CC me on all replies)

Reformat ext3/ioctl.c to make it look more like ext4/ioctl.c and remove the BKL around ext3_ioctl().
Patch is against 2.6.28. Compile tested only.

Please review and consider applying!
