Subject: [PATCH] virtio_blk: remove BKL leftovers
Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2010 01:27:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100914232723.GA14175@lst.de> (raw)

Remove the BKL usage added in "block: push down BKL into .locked_ioctl".
Virtio-blk doesn't use the BKL for anything, and doesn't implement any
ioctl command by itself, but only uses the generic scsi_cmd_ioctl
which is fine without the BKL.
