From f2068b80ca59d63ca21ee1da829c9fe09f25b08e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nithin Sujir Date: Thu, 23 May 2013 11:11:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] tg3: Remove unnecessary lock around tg3_flag_set The spinlock was needed when flags used to be a u32 and set/cleared using bit operations. Now that we use the atomic set_bit, this lock isn't needed. Signed-off-by: Nithin Nayak Sujir Signed-off-by: Michael Chan Signed-off-by: David S.
