------------------------------------------------------
Subject: phonedev: remove BKL
From: Richard Holden <aciddeath@xxxxxxxxx>
The phone_device array is covered by the phone_lock mutex in all cases and
request_module no longer needs the BKL so we can remove the only remaining
instance of the BKL from phonedev.
