Subject: BKL: That's all, folks

This removes the implementation of the big kernel lock,
at last. A lot of people have worked on this in the
past, I so the credit for this patch should be with
everyone who participated in the hunt.

The names on the Cc list are the people that were the
most active in this, according to the recorded git
history, in alphabetical order.
