This patch series remove direct calls for BKL on some V4L drivers. It also uses .unlocked_ioctl for some of those drivers. This is a work in progress, as I'm doing the conversion manually. We still need to touch on the drivers bellow, just due to explicit call to BKL: drivers/media/video/tlg2300/pd-main.c drivers/media/video/se401.c drivers/media/video/zoran/zoran_driver.c drivers/media/video/cx23885/cx23885-417.c drivers/media/video/cx23885/cx23885-video.c drivers/media/video/usbvideo/vicam.c drivers/media/video/usbvision/usbvision-video.c drivers/media/video/dabusb.c drivers/media/video/pwc/pwc-if.c drivers/media/video/v4l2-dev.c drivers/media/video/stk-webcam.c Probably, there are more drivers still using .ioctl, instead of .unsigned_ioctl. The patches here were not tested yet. Help is needed to test them and to review the patch series.
