this patch still needs to add locking documentation commits to hpet.c,
which shows that you considered all the locking changes that happen due
to dropping the BKL. Most of this code runs very rarely so there's
little chance that races will be caught in practice in any debuggable
manner.

Ok, will do this. Can you also check the RTC patch I sent that removes
the BKL from the RTC user space driver? The locking is already done,
only the BKL calls needed to be removed.

Reads don't need to be locked here, so you could just move the spin_lock_irq
down a bit and avoid the redundant unlock_irq. Same below.
