Oops....


> what is <bkl_trace> used for?  or unused?

It is used on trace_bkl_acquire and trace_bkl_release functions. It is
really necessary
to keep a reference to the global trace array.

I can send a new patch with the corrections or send a new one which
applies on this one
if it is accepted.
As you want Ingo...
