Subject: [PATCH] mmtimer: Push BKL down into the ioctl handler
Date: Thu, 22 May 2008 21:42:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080522214244.457da3d7@core> (raw)

Switches to unlocked_ioctl read to remove ioctl BKL method. Fix the
unknown ioctl return. Probably a nice easy one to kill off BKL usage
entirely later
