Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/6] fat: BKL ioctl pushdown

I guess this is the part of batch ioctl conversion stuff though, those
ioctl of FAT don't need BKL at all. Because all of those should already
be protected by inode->i_mutex.

Removing BKL and then cleanup after this patch would be almost same with
reverting this patch. So, could you just convert to unlocked_ioctl
instead?

Thanks.
