[PATCH] Protect tty drivers list a little
From: Alexey Dobriyan
Date: Thu Mar 22 2007 - 07:18:25 EST
Additions and removal from tty_drivers list were just done as well as
iterating on it for /proc/tty/drivers generation.
testing: modprobe/rmmod loop of simple module which does nothing but
tty_register_driver() vs cat /proc/tty/drivers loop
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 6b6b6b6b
printing eip:
c01cefa7
*pde = 00000000
