Subject: [PATCH 03/27] BKL: Remove BKL from simple_fill_super
simple_fill_super is used in following filesystems that don't use the BKL
otherwise:
- security/selinux/selinuxfs.c
- security/inode.c
- security/smack/smackfs.c
- drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/ipath_fs.c
- drivers/xen/xenfs/super.c
- fs/debugfs/inode.c
It is used in following filesystems that make use of the BKL:
- fs/fuse/control.c
- fs/binfmt_misc.c
- fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c
All three filesystems protect the call to simple_fill_super() by the BKL
themself. Therefore it is safe to remove the BKL from simpe_fill_super().
