From dcf727ab5d1702abc9510a1a91afbd671e410b52 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Vetter Date: Sat, 10 Dec 2016 22:52:53 +0100 Subject: drm: setclientcap doesn't need the drm BKL It only updates per-file feature flags. And all the ioctl which change behaviour depending upon these flags (they're all kms features) do _not_ hold the BKL. Therefor this is pure cargo-cult and can be removed. Note that there's a risk that the ioctl will behave inconsistently when userspace is racing with itself, but that's ok. The only thing it's not allowed to do is oops the kernel, and from an audit all places are safe. v2: Clarify that the inconsistency is only when userspace races (Chris).
