[PATCH -next] pktcdvd: improve BKL and compat_ioctl.c usage

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Feb 25 2010 - 16:27:32 EST


The pktcdvd driver uses proper locking and does not need the
BKL in the ioctl and llseek functions of the character device,
so kill both. Moving the compat_ioctl handling from common code
into the driver itself fixes build problems when CONFIG_BLOCK is
disabled.

How about this one instead, cleaning pktcdvd ioctl handling up for good?
