Subject: BKL: Remove BKL from do_new_mount()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6841c05021236b8d394cc6c41aa6ae17623aef13;p=linux-beck.git

BKL: Remove BKL from do_new_mount()

After pushing down the BKL to the get_sb/fill_super operations of the
filesystems that still make usage of the BKL it is safe to remove it from
do_new_mount().

I've read through all the code formerly covered by the BKL inside
do_kern_mount() and have satisfied myself that it doesn't need the BKL
any more.
