From 625f2a378e5a10f45fdc37932fc9f8a21676de9e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Corbet Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2011 11:19:10 -0600 Subject: sched: Get rid of lock_depth Neil Brown pointed out that lock_depth somehow escaped the BKL removal work. Let's get rid of it now. Note that the perf scripting utilities still have a bunch of code for dealing with common_lock_depth in tracepoints; I have left that in place in case anybody wants to use that code with older kernels.
