Subject: [PATCH v5 05/18] watchdog: cpwd: use generic compat_ptr_ioctl
Date: Wed, 14 Aug 2019 22:42:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190814204259.120942-6-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190814204259.120942-1-arnd@arndb.de>

The cpwd_compat_ioctl() contains a bogus mutex that dates
back to a leftover BKL instance.

Simplify the implementation by using the new compat_ptr_ioctl()
helper function that will do the right thing for all calls
here.

Note that WIOCSTART/WIOCSTOP don't take any arguments, so
the compat_ptr() conversion is not needed here, but it also
doesn't hurt.
