Subject: USB-BKL: Remove lock_kernel in usbfs update_sb()
X-Git-Url: http://git.mmlx.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6e12ea4658487ba9c746e95b31014cb89f63703b;p=linux-edison.git

USB-BKL: Remove lock_kernel in usbfs update_sb()

The code this is attempting to lock against does not use the BKL,
so it's not needed.

Most likely this code is still broken/racy (Al Viro also thinks so),
but removing the BKL should not make it worse than before.
