[PATCH][RFC] spin_trylock_bh

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo (acme@conectiva.com.br)
Date: Sat Sep 15 2001 - 15:26:59 EST


Hi,

        Please see if this is acceptable, I noticed this while working on
the locks for NetBEUI 8) Patch is against 2.4.9, but it should apply to
latest prepatch. It was being used in the ppp code for quite some time.

                        - Arnaldo
