This patch landed recently in linux-next as commit 24c5ed3ddf27 
("drm/vc4: Introduce generation number enum"). In my tests I found that 
it introduces the following warning on Raspberry Pi3B+ board:

================================================
WARNING: lock held when returning to user space!
6.11.0-rc5+ #15405 Tainted: G         C
------------------------------------------------
(udev-worker)/161 is leaving the kernel with locks still held!
1 lock held by (udev-worker)/161:
  #0: ffff80008338bff8 (drm_unplug_srcu){.?.?}-{0:0}, at: 
drm_dev_enter+0x0/0xdc


I suspect that the error path is somewhere broken and the conversion 
triggered that path.


A wild guess (noticed by grepping for 'drm_dev_enter') is that the 
following chunk is broken:

as changing the above check to 'if (hvs->vc4->gen > VC4_GEN_4)' fixes this issue (tested also on top of linux-next). I think that one has to review the checks again as well as the error paths in the driver.
