From: Ming Lei Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2011 11:06:25 +0000 (+0800) Subject: UBUNTU: SAUCE: fix yama_ptracer_del lockdep warning X-Git-Url: http://git.alex.org.uk UBUNTU: SAUCE: fix yama_ptracer_del lockdep warning yama_ptracer_del can be called in softirq context, so ptracer_relations_lock may be held in softirq context. This patch replaces spin_[un]lock with spin_[un]lock_bh for &ptracer_relations_lock to fix reported lockdep warning and avoid possible dealock.
