Subject: [PATCH] nfsd to unlock kernel before exiting
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c4f92dba97f4e3aa757500896f87001569f4604b;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

[PATCH] nfsd to unlock kernel before exiting

The nfsd holds the big kernel lock upon exit, when it really shouldn't.
Not to mention that this breaks Ingo's RT patch. This is a trivial fix
to release the lock.

Ingo, this patch also works with your kernel, and stops the problem with
nfsd.

Note, there's a "goto out;" where "out:" is right above svc_exit_thread.
The point of the goto also holds the kernel_lock, so I don't see any
problem here in releasing it.
