From 6841c05021236b8d394cc6c41aa6ae17623aef13 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Blunck Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:25:35 +0100 Subject: BKL: Remove BKL from do_new_mount() After pushing down the BKL to the get_sb/fill_super operations of the filesystems that still make usage of the BKL it is safe to remove it from do_new_mount(). I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL any more.
