From 60c11d2abf4ef811d0ce3ea34279746729c4c6fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Holden Date: Sat, 18 Oct 2008 20:27:53 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] phonedev: remove BKL The phone_device array is covered by the phone_lock mutex in all cases and request_module no longer needs the BKL so we can remove the only remaining instance of the BKL from phonedev.
