Subject: -next June 21: WARNING: at include/linux/tty.h
Date: Tue, 22 Jun 2010 10:55:54 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C204962.70208@in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100621170056.2fcf10ad.sfr@canb.auug.org.au>

With next-20100621 on a x86_64 box came across this warning :

TCP cubic registered

------------[ cut here ]------------

This warning seem to have been introduced with next-20100617.
The corresponding code is :

585 static inline void tty_lock(void) __acquires(kernel_lock)
586 {
587 #ifdef CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL
588         /* kernel_locked is 1 for !CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL */
589         WARN_ON(kernel_locked());
590 #endif
591         lock_kernel();
592 }

which was added by commit 01510c869f9..

tty: replace BKL with a new tty_lock

Thanks
-Sachin
