So this is only half of the story, because the boilerplate only exists
when you're using drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx. Which should be used for
modern atomic display drivers everywhere.

But drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx isn't exactly the same as
drm_modeset_lock_all, so this needs to be explained.

Now the problem with drm_modeset_lock_all is that it hides a memory
allocation, and if that allocation fails then we just die. Which isn't
great really, but in practice the kernel tries really hard to never fail
this allocation. That's why we move the drm_modeset_acquire_ctx onto the
stack.

I think for understanding what's going on here you'd first need to convert
the code to the full open-code boilerplate using drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx,
with explanations of why the changes are ok. Then replace it with the
convenient macro. Once it's clear what's going on under the hood it should
then be easier to explain the situation in subsequent conversions with
just one patch.
