[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Fix locking around GuC firmware load

Daniel Stone daniels at collabora.com
Tue Nov 3 13:42:31 PST 2015


The GuC firmware load requires struct_mutex to create a GEM object,
but this collides badly with request_firmware. Move struct_mutex
locking down into the loader itself, so we don't hold it across the
entire load process, including request_firmware.
