Revision 72f0b4e2133ba1d65147d06016c0b6d2202235ca authored by Andrew Morton on 05 August 2006, 19:13:47 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 06 August 2006, 15:57:46 UTC
We've confirmed that the debug version of write_lock() can get stuck for long
enough to cause NMI watchdog timeouts and hence a crash.

We don't know why, yet.   Disable it for now.

Also disable the similar read_lock() code.  Just in case.

Thanks to Dave Olson <olson@unixfolk.com> for reporting and testing.
