    kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: definitely drop the bkl from reiserfs_ioctl() · 205cb37b
    Frederic Weisbecker authored
    The reiserfs ioctl path doesn't need the big kernel lock anymore , now
    that the filesystem synchronizes through its own lock.
    
    We can then turn reiserfs_ioctl() into an unlocked_ioctl callback.
