[PATCH 05/17] blktrans: add proper locking

Maxim Levitsky maximlevitsky at gmail.com
Sat Jan 30 10:02:36 EST 2010


First, use lockless versions of get/put_mtd_device
We don't care what happened to mtd table, because we have a pointer
to mtd device. It guaranteed to exist till we do final put_mtd_device

Also add locking to prevent all kinds or races
