I think it's better to also add the lockdep_assert() of & (i.e. both
held) in the updater side, and have comments pointing to each other.
Is it convenient to do in this patchset? If the updater side doesn't
need to put the lockdep_assert() (maybe the lock acquire code and the
update code are in the same function), it's still better to add some
comments like:
/*
* To update drm_file.master, both drm_file.master_lookup_lock
* and drm_device.master_mutex are needed, therefore holding
* either of them is safe and enough for the read side.
*/
Just feel it's better to explain the lock design either in the
lockdep_assert() or comments.
