Note, I do not know this code well enough to say. I'm assuming that an rdevA on a rdevB->supply_list never has rdevB on its own rdevA->supply_list. If this is the case, and that you only ever have a lock nesting of one, then sure, use the SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING. Peter or Ingo could correct me if I'm wrong. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
