Since I now have been staring for half a year at the code of the driver that made pinning an art, I have a couple of suggestions here, Could we use an atomic for pin_count, allowing unlocked unpinning but require the lock only for pin_count transition 0->1, (but unlocked for pin_if_already_pinned). In particular I think vmwgfx would benefit from unlocked unpins. Also if the atomic were a refcount_t, that would probably give you the above behaviour?

Nope, I've considered this as well while moving the pin count into TTM.

The problem is that you not only need the BO reserved for 0->1 transitions, but also for 1->0 transitions to move the BO on the LRU correctly.

Ah, and there is no way to have us know the correct LRU list without reservation?
