From 12e750d956eec8b1778679aff705f617095c46c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 19:34:56 -0400 Subject: alpha: kill big kernel lock All uses of the BKL on alpha are totally bogus, nothing is really protected by this. Remove the remaining users so we don't have to mark alpha as 'depends on BKL'.
