tty: BKL pushdown
- Push the BKL down into the line disciplines - Switch the tty layer to unlocked_ioctl - Introduce a new ctrl_lock spin lock for the control bits - Eliminate much of the lock_kernel use in n_tty - Prepare to (but don't yet) call the drivers with the lock dropped on the paths that historically held the lock BKL now primarily protects open/close/ldisc change in the tty layer [jirislaby@gmail.com: a couple of fixes] Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
