Firstly we must harvest these functions, it is easy to miss someones. Secondly these functions need select which lock (read lock or write lock) will be used, according to the thread it is running in.

If it finds that in_gpu_reset is 1, it should release read lock if it has holden one, and then blocks itself to wait for recovery finished event. If thread successfully hold read lock and in_gpu_reset is 0, it continues.
