From 6c5e0c4d518a37e1d5d794c14433e80284415079 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Fri, 1 Aug 2008 20:31:32 +0200 Subject: block: add a blk_plug_device_unlocked() that grabs the queue lock blk_plug_device() must be called with the queue lock held, so callers often just grab and release the lock for that purpose. Add a helper that does just that.
