Jonathan Corbet d21c95c569 Add "no BKL needed" comments to several drivers
This documents the fact that somebody looked at the relevant open()
functions and concluded that, due to their trivial nature, no locking was
needed.

Jonathan Corbet 20613f24bc usbcore: cdev lock_kernel() pushdown
usb_open() is protected by a down_read(&minor_rwsem), but I'm not sure I
trust it to protect everything including subsidiary open() functions.

Geert Uytterhoeven 52de114e35 m68k: Prefix ISA type with ISA_TYPE_
The *_ISA type defines are quite generic and cause namespace conflicts
(e.g. with `AMIGAHW_DECLARE(GG2_ISA)' in <asm/amigahw.h>) for some kernel
configurations. Use ISA_TYPE_* to avoid such conflicts.
