I'd prefer if commit messages follow the idiomatic kernel style of that
order:
   1. Describe the current situation
   2. State why it's bad or undesirable
   3. (describe the solution)
   4. Conclude commit message through sentences in imperative stating
      what the commit does.

In this case I would go for:
"struct drm_sched_rq contains a spinlock that protects several struct
members. The current documentation incorrectly states that this lock
only guards the entities list. In truth, it guards that list, the
rb_tree and the current entity.

Document what the lock actually guards. Rearrange struct members so
that this becomes even more visible."

Would be more consistent with the below comment if you'd address them
with their full name, aka "protects @entities, @rb_tree_root and
@current_entity".


Thanks,
