ipc,msg: introduce msgctl_nolock
commit 2cafed30 upstream. Similar to semctl, when calling msgctl, the *_INFO and *_STAT commands can be performed without acquiring the ipc object. Add a msgctl_nolock() function and move the logic of *_INFO and *_STAT out of msgctl(). This change still takes the lock and it will be properly lockless in the next patch Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr.bueso@hp.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
