dma_fence is a shared concept, this is upstream, drivers are expected
to a) use shared concepts and b) use them in a consistent way. If
drivers do whatever they feel like then they're no maintainable in the
upstream sense of "maintainable even if the vendor walks away". This
was the reason why amd had to spend 2 refactoring from DAL (which used
all the helpers they shared with their firmware/windows driver) to DC
(which uses all the upstream kms helpers and datastructures directly).

So ime the above deadlock summaries tend to be wrong as soon as you
have more than 2 locks involved. Which we have here - they only ever
show at most 2 threads, with each thread only taking 2 locks in total,
which isn't going to deadlock if you have more than 2 locks involved.
Which is the case above.
Personally I just ignore the above deadlock scenario and just always
look at all the locks and backtraces lockdep gives me, and then
reconstruct the dependency graph by hand myself, including deadlock
scenario.

The above doesn't deadlock, and it also shouldn't result in a lockdep
splat. The trouble is when the signalling thread also grabs
i915_gem_object_internal/1 somewhere. Which if you go through full CI
results you see there's more involved (and at least one of the splats
is all just lockdep priming and might_lock, so could be an annotation
bug on top), and there is indeed a path where we lock the driver
private lock in more places, and the wrong way round. That's the thing
lockdep is complaining about, it's just not making that clear in the
summary because the summary is only ever correct for 2 locks. Not if
more is involved.

lock_acquire/release is a wrapper around lock_map_acquire/release.
This is all lockdep internal, it's a completely undocumented maze, so
unfortunately only option is to really careful follow all the
definitions from various locking primitives. And then compare with
lockdep self-test (which use the locking primitives, not the lockdep
internals) to see which flag controls which kind of behaviour.
That's at least what I do, and it's horrible. But yeah lockdep doesn't
have documentation for this.
If you think it's better to open code the lock_map/acquire, I guess I
can do that. But it's a mess, so I need to carefully retest everything
and make sure I've set the right flags and bits - for added fun they
also change ordering in some of the wrappers!
