[PATCH 12/20] x25: remove the BKL

Arnd Bergmann
2011-01-25T22:20:45Z

This replaces all instances of lock_kernel in x25
with lock_sock, taking care to release the socket
lock around sleeping functions (sock_alloc_send_skb
and skb_recv_datagram). It is not clear whether
this is a correct solution, but it seem to be what
other protocols do in the same situation.

Compile-tested only.
