backport commit 6606470dd1d628878383c96d10b52a77986ddac7
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> Author: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Date: Fri May 16 14:28:31 2008 -0600 videodev: BKL pushdown Put explicit lock_kernel() calls into videodev_open(). That function itself seems OK, but one never knows about all the open() functions provided by underlying video drivers. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
