* 5/24/00 Removed optional (and unnecessary) locking of the driver while
* the device remains plugged in. Corrected race conditions in ibmcam_open
* and ibmcam_probe() routines using this as a guideline:
*
* (2) The big kernel lock is automatically released when a process sleeps
* in the kernel and is automatically reacquired on reschedule if the
* process had the lock originally. Any code that can be compiled as
* a module and is entered with the big kernel lock held *MUST*
* increment the use count to activate the indirect module protection
* before doing anything that might sleep.
*
* In practice, this means that all routines that live in modules and
* are invoked under the big kernel lock should do MOD_INC_USE_COUNT
* as their very first action. And all failure paths from that
* routine must do MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT before returning.
