Subject: [PATCH v2 3/9] watchdog: move definition of 'watchdog_proc_mutex' outside of proc_dowatchdog()
Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2014 19:06:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1413565588-4144-4-git-send-email-uobergfe@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1413565588-4144-1-git-send-email-uobergfe@redhat.com>

This series removes the proc_dowatchdog() function. Since multiple
new functions need the 'watchdog_proc_mutex' to serialize access to
the watchdog parameters in /proc/sys/kernel, move the mutex outside
of any function.
