From 86aaf9ad8276160312c09771c0f8e64646996e4c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ron Mercer Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2009 11:46:49 +0000 Subject: qlge: Fix lock/mutex warnings. Get rid of spinlock and private mutex usage for exclusive access to the HW semaphore register. rtnl_lock already creates exclusive access to this register in all driver API. Add rtnl to firmware worker threads that also use the HW semaphore register. Signed-off-by: Ron Mercer Signed-off-by: David S.
