Thanks for testing, applied patch to drm-misc.

Well that was correct ages ago I guess but since then we've split out tons
of other locks. It doesn't protect anything else really since those lists
are all static after driver load, and even here it's just to shut up the
WARNING (which is right for runtime in general and not harmful to grab the
lock really either).

I do have a plan to fix up kerneldoc, but I want to get the various
improvements collabora is working on in first.
