s2255drv: removal of BKL
From: Dean Anderson <dean@sensoray.com>
big kernel lock removed from open function.
v4l2 code does not require locking the open function except
to check asynchronous firmware load state, which is protected
by a mutex
Priority: normal
Signed-off-by: Dean Anderson <dean@sensoray.com>
