Subject: HID: hiddev: use usb_find_interface, get rid of BKL
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.36-rc1~567^2^2
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bd25f4dd6972755579d0;p=karo-tx-linux.git

HID: hiddev: use usb_find_interface, get rid of BKL

This removes the private hiddev_table in the usbhid
driver and changes it to use usb_find_interface
instead.

The advantage is that we can avoid the race between
usb_register_dev and usb_open and no longer need the
big kernel lock.

This doesn't introduce race condition -- the intf pointer could be
invalidated only in hiddev_disconnect() through usb_deregister_dev(),
but that will block on minor_rwsem and not actually remove the device
until usb_open().
