Notes: This patch takes the BKL out of vfs_readdir() and moves it into the individual filesystems, all 35 of them. I have the feeling that this wasn't done before because there are a lot of these to change and it was a pain to find them all. I definitely got all of those that were defined in the in the structure declaration like this "readdir: fs_readdir;" vxfs_readdir was assigned strangely, but I found it anyway. I also left devfs out of this one. Richard Gooch seems confident that devfs has no need for the BKL. |
