2010-09-16drm: use noop_llseekArnd Bergmann
The drm device drivers currently allow seeking on the character device but never care about the actual file position. When we change the default llseek operation to be no_llseek, calling llseek on a drm device would return an error condition, which is an API change. Explicitly setting noop_llseek lets us keep the current API. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: David Airlie <airlied@linux.ie> Cc: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org

2010-08-20Documentation: kernel-locking: mutex_trylock cannot be used in interrupt contextStefan Richter
Chapter 6 is right about mutex_trylock, but chapter 10 wasn't. This error was introduced during semaphore-to-mutex conversion of the Unreliable guide. :-) If user context which performs mutex_lock() or mutex_trylock() is preempted by interrupt context which performs mutex_trylock() on the same mutex instance, a deadlock occurs. This is because these functions do not disable local IRQs when they operate on mutex->wait_lock.
