| You forgot to document what this semaphore is used for.
Here goes the second patch again, with the documentation now.
As I said before, would be good to apply these two patches now, and I
can cleanup the spinlock usage until next week.
Fixes a race-condition in the access of the port structure, described
in detail at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113216151918308&w=2
