Quick question about do_exit...

I have a quick question about the do_exit function... the bottom of which
looks like this:

        lock_kernel();
fake_volatile:
#ifdef CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT
        acct_process(code);
#endif
        sem_exit();
        __exit_mm(tsk);
        __exit_files(tsk);
        __exit_fs(tsk);
        __exit_sighand(tsk);
        exit_thread();
        tsk->state = TASK_ZOMBIE;
        tsk->exit_code = code;
        exit_notify();
        put_exec_domain(tsk->exec_domain);
        if (tsk->binfmt && tsk->binfmt->module)
                __MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT(tsk->binfmt->module);
        schedule();

Where does the kernel lock get dropped? I can't seem to find out where
this is... and I have looked high and low. :)
