Before i get the rational of these patches.... Have they been tested with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING enabled? My experience with networking is that it is very easy to get tied up in AB-BA deadlocks. You need the LED to be as dumb as possible, it is always logically 'below' the trigger. Having the LED calling up into the trigger generally gets you into trouble. Andrew
