Where is kernel_lock_held() ??

Compiling recent kernels under Alpha w/ SMP=1 is very broken. :(
Currently trying to fix 2.1.120-pre3.

I am trying to work through the bugs and typos, instead of going SMP=0.
Hopefully I'll stamp a bunch out. :)

Anyway, arch/alpha/kernel/smp.c references a function/macro
kernel_lock_held(), apparently a boolean function. _ALL_ references to
this function are surrounded with "#if 1 ... $endif" conditionals.

Grepping the entire source reveals that kernel_lock_held doesn't exist
at all, except for the four refs in smp.c.

Does anybody know what happened to this function? Do I need to
implement it? The references are not present in 2.0.35, BTW.

Thanks,

Jeff
