It doesn't, you confuse spin_unlock with spin_unlock_irq.

Please check guc_lrc_desc_unpin(). It gets called from the 
destroyed_worker_func as  hinted by lockdep in 13399. There is a plain 
spin_lock() in there (in contradiction with itself). Fixing that one may 
be all that is needed to fix this correctly.

If that turns out right then also:

Fixes: 2f2cc53b5fe7 ("drm/i915/guc: Close deregister-context race 
against CT-loss")
Cc: <stable at vger.kernel.org> # v6.9+
