From 0b048c7a1d7f65e3e3f77834c03237be9d6d94b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 10:28:38 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] macintosh: Remove BKL from nvram driver Drop the bkl from nvram_llseek() as it obviously protects nothing. The file offset is safe in essence. The ioctl can be converted to unlocked_ioctl because it just calls pmac_get_partition() which reads a value from an array which was initialized at early boot time. No need for serialization.
