driverfs converted.
|
|
The previous patch did not provide protection for device lseek methods
(drivers/* stuff). This patch pushes the BKL into each of the remaining
lseek methods -- without them we have a race.
I'd much prefer to have a a better lock to push down than the BKL, but
that will have to wait.
Before you balk at the size, remember patch #2 in this series which
removed much code ;-)
Thanks to Al for assistance, especially a listing of affected files.
