From foo@baz Tue Apr 9 12:12:43 2002 Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2007 11:52:31 -0400 (EDT) To: Greg KH From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Subject: PHY: remove rwsem use from phy core The subsystem rwsem is not used by the driver core at all, so the use of it in the phy code doesn't make any sense. They might possibly want to use a local lock, but I am unsure about that.
