Looking at the 3 patches and the need to have a locked version of pretty
much everything I'm wondering: Can't we just drop the spinlock completely,
and everywhere we've taking it thus far replace it with a
lockdep_assert_held_once?

The thing is, if there's any path left that doesn't hold the rwsem in at
least read mode we have a bug. And the right way to fix such a bug is to
grab the rwsem sufficiently high up in the callchain. That way I think we
should be able to avoid all these tedious changes to everything, including
touching i915 and vmwgfx drivers.

Or am I missing something big time?
