Um, no, that's a "feature" that some types of hardware and interfaces require. This is one reason I really don't like this type of conversion, it's causing lots of problems for no known gain. So I would just recommend dropping this patch set, the current "convert class semaphore to a mutex" patch in the -mm tree is already causing lockdep warnings, and trying to do something like this isn't really going to solve the root problem here. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
