Date: Sun, 4 Jul 2010 00:02:24 +0200 From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: John Kacur <jkacur@...hat.com>, Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@...il.com>, Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>, Bob Picco <bob.picco@...com>, Clemens Ladisch <clemens@...isch.de>, Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@...ux-m68k.org>, Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@...ibm.com>, Jaroslav Kysela <perex@...ex.cz>, Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@...tuousgeek.org>, linux-pci@...r.kernel.org, linux-s390@...r.kernel.org, Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@...ibm.com>, Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>, Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org> Subject: [PATCH 0/8] BKL removal, assorted patches These patches are necessary for the removal of the big kernel lock but don't fit in any other series. The most important one is the addition of the CONFIG_BKL Kconfig symbol, which can be used to mark device drivers that are still using the BKL so we can build a kernel that does not provide or need it. I'd like to add this series to linux-next and submit it for linux-2.6.36 inclusion, but would even more welcome the individual maintainers to pick up the respective patches and put them in their next trees.
