From a6540f731d506d9e82444cf0020e716613d4c46c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Cox Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2009 18:42:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ppp: Fix throttling bugs The ppp layer goes around calling the unthrottle method from non sleeping paths. This isn't safe because the unthrottle methods in the tty layer need to be able to sleep (consider a USB dongle). Until now this didn't show up because the ppp layer never actually throttled a port so the unthrottle was always a no-op. Currently it's a mutex taking path so warnings are spewed if the unthrottle occurs via certain paths. Fix this by removing the unneccessary unthrottle calls.
