[PATCH v2 02/23] netconsole: Introduce locking over the netpoll fields

From: Mike Waychison
Date: Mon Nov 08 2010 - 15:32:24 EST


The netconsole driver currently doesn't do any locking over its
configuration fields. This can cause problems if we were to ever have
concurrent writing to fields while somebody is enabling the service.

For simplicity, this patch extends targets_list_lock to cover all
configuration fields within the targets. Macros are also added here to
wrap accessors so that we check whether the target has been enabled with
locking handled.
