Subject: [PATCH] Fix locking bug in lltx path
Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2004 20:11:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3vfei9gzv.fsf@averell.firstfloor.org> (raw)


Thanks to Arjan's spinlock debug kernel for finding it.

This fixes a silly missing spin lock in the relock path. For some 
reason it seems to still work when you don't have spinlock debugging
enabled.

Please apply.
