Subject: [PATCH] megaraid_sas: fix EH locking
Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2005 19:51:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051031185124.GA16303@lst.de> (raw)

recent kernels call the eh_ methods without the host lock held.
megaraid_sas doesn't need it but drops it before calling a sleeping
routine and reqcquires it afterwards.  Just remove the
spin_unlock/spin_lock calls.
