Right, I thought twice about this, but this seems far from clean, as
you say, so I thought it would be fine.

There's not much point, though, since we have a declaration for
drm_i915_private in this file anyway, so the dependency is still
there...

In any case, I'll unspin this change and go back to passing the actual
lock instead of passing drm_i915_private.
