Subject: Re: nfsd changes for 2.6.37

Btw, the nfsd delegation code still has a few comments referring to the
BKL.  This should probably be cleaned up:

fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c: * Called from break_lease() with lock_kernel() held.
fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c:    /* only place dl_time is set. protected by lock_kernel*/
fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c: * Called by locks_free_lock() with lock_kernel() held.
fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c: * Called from setlease() with lock_kernel() held
