Subject: [PATCH] do_acct_process: don't take tty_mutex
Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2006 17:56:44 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061023135644.GA1501@oleg> (raw)

Depends on
	tty-signal-tty-locking.patch

No need to take the global tty_mutex, signal->tty->driver can't go away
while we are holding ->siglock.

Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>
