From 6530e0fee1834fab51720769ac422186de2b3120 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "remi.denis-courmont@nokia" Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2009 03:00:29 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Phonet: remove useless locking in device cleanup MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Incoming packets and sockets are already gone. The netdevice notifier is unregistered under the RTNL lock There remains a race with the rtnetlink handlers unregistration, but it is a generic RTNL issue that was already present before this change.
