Yeah I think that approach makes sense, sorry if that wasn't clear. We
should probably rename the current drm_state_dump to something more
scary, and make the "normal" version the one that takes locks. Also
not modeset_lock_all, but modeset_lock_all_ctx (or the screaming macro
to hide the retry loop).
