[PATCH 5/8] UML - mconsole locking

From: Jeff Dike
Date: Mon Jan 01 2007 - 14:54:47 EST


Locking fixes. Locking was totally lacking for the mconsole_devices,
which got a spin lock, and the unplugged pages data, which got a
mutex.

The locking of the mconsole console output code was confused. Now,
the console_lock (renamed to client_lock) protects the clients list.
