Subject: netconsole: make all dynamic netconsoles share a mutex
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=369e5a888179f31dcd7cc8e02d695e6481a66075;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

netconsole: make all dynamic netconsoles share a mutex

Currently, each dynamic netconsole_target uses its own separate mutex to
synchronize the configuration operations.

This patch replaces the per-netconsole_target mutexes with a single
mutex - dynamic_netconsole_mutex.  The reduced granularity doesn't hurt
anything, the code is minutely simpler and this'd allow adding
operations which should be synchronized across all dynamic netconsoles.
