From a6fb0934f923f889055152cb0b033674f627460b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Fri, 9 Sep 2005 16:23:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] md: use kthread infrastructure in md Switch MD to use the kthread infrastructure, to simplify the code and get rid of tasklist_lock abuse in md_unregister_thread. Also don't flush signals in md_thread, as the called thread will always do that.
