Subject: [PATCH] aoe: remove dev_base_lock use from aoecmd_cfg_pkts()
Date: Fri, 29 Oct 2010 13:15:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1288350929.2560.16.camel@edumazet-laptop> (raw)

dev_base_lock is the legacy way to lock the device list, and is planned
to disappear. (writers hold RTNL, readers hold RCU lock)

Convert aoecmd_cfg_pkts() to RCU locking.
