5e9829ad38 bpp: bkl pushdown 
Put explicit lock_kernel() calls into bpp_open().  It has locking, but I'm
not convinced it won't race with ioctl().

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.

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.
