USB: ftdi_sio: Replace BKL with a mutex
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
As Alan Cox have pinpointed the driver still required protection against
parallels calls to the config ioctl(). If lock is still necessary the use of
BKL is abused here. So replace BKL with a more convenient mutex.
