[PATCH v4] procfs: Push down the bkl from ioctl

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Tue Mar 30 2010 - 01:27:50 EST


Push down the bkl from procfs's ioctl main handler to its users.
Only three procfs users implement an ioctl (non unlocked) handler.
Turn them into unlocked_ioctl and push down the Devil inside.

v2: PDE(inode)->data doesn't need to be under bkl
v3: And don't forget to git-add the result
v4: Use wrappers to pushdown instead of an invasive and error prone
handlers surgery.
