Greg tells me that the semaphore to mutex change didn't go into Linus' tree. However, this patch can still be applied as the device_lock/unlock primitives did go in. I guess that the include of mutex.h is not needed. --=20 Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/ --Signature=_Tue__9_Mar_2010_12_52_45_+1100_Ay92DLu+zl5zo5f.
