okay, I understand that your goal here is not to fix xe in case the
flow is totally broken there because of the lack of the locks to
serialize the display here. Nor also remove this serialization in
i915, if not needed. And that's the safest option I agree.

I just wonder if we could do in some more generic way like avoiding
the term 'uncore' and using 'dev_priv' as argument instead of the
lock directly. But not hard feelings...

shouldn't we save before lock or restore before unlock?
or to be on the safe side also create other helpers for these?
