From 341487a837c02cbd674d4751061e7d098b0b8e98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2007 11:52:31 -0400 Subject: USB: remove use of the bus rwsem, as it doesn't really protect anything. The driver core stopped using the rwsem a long time ago, yet the USB core still grabbed the lock, thinking it protected something. This patch removes that useless use.
