6dcb85a0ad99 ("drm/i915: Hold irq-off for the entire fake lock period")
is very relevant as well.
The existing code leads to a different behaviour depending on whether
lockdep is enabled or not. Any following lock that is acquired without
disabling interrupts (but needs to) will not be noticed by lockdep.
Agreed this is not good.
This it not just a lockdep annotation but is used but an actual mutex_t
that is properly used as a lock but in case of __timeline_mark_lock()
lockdep is only told that it is acquired but no lock has been acquired.
It appears that its purpose is just satisfy the lockdep_assert_held()
check in intel_context_mark_active(). The other problem with disabling
interrupts is that on PREEMPT_RT interrupts are also disabled which
leads to problems for instance later during memory allocation.
Hmm commit message of d67739268cf0 ("drm/i915/gt: Mark up the nested
engine-pm timeline lock as irqsafe") makes it sound like parking can run
with interrupts disabled already. I mean outside of the irq disable hack
in here.
I don't see it possible though, both due might_lock in intel_wakeref_put
and GFP_NOWAIT in switch_to_kernel_context. So I will assume that commit
message refers to an earlier state of the code base.
So the approach in this patch looks good to me.
Add a CONTEXT_IS_PARKED bit to intel_engine_cs and set_bit/clear_bit it
instead of mutex_acquire/mutex_release. Use test_bit in the two
identified spots which relied on the lockdep annotation.

Pedantic comment is that semantics of the bit flag suggest it should be
name CONTEXT_IS_PARKING, or along those lines. Since the flag gets clear
as soon as the parking completes. I'd suggest doing that change for the
self-documenting benefit.
