From: Eric Biggers Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2020 07:33:59 +0000 (-0800) Subject: tty: drop outdated comments about release_tty() locking X-Git-Tag: baikal/aarch64/sdk6.1~9789^2~2 X-Git-Url: https://git.baikalelectronics.ru/sdk/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=360954eb9e8d207d63f8510b5e0d0f5363558d94;p=kernel.git tty: drop outdated comments about release_tty() locking The current version of the TTY code unlocks the tty_struct(s) before release_tty() rather than after. Moreover, tty_unlock_pair() no longer exists. Thus, remove the outdated comments regarding tty_unlock_pair().
