I have two more thoughts on the patch: - drm_master_flush isn't used by any modules outside of drm.ko, so we can unexport it and drop the kerneldoc (the comment is still good). These kind of internal functions have their declaration in drm-internal.h - there's already a few there from drm_auth.c - We know have 3 locks for master state, that feels a bit like overkill. The spinlock I think we need to keep due to lock inversions, but the master_mutex and master_rwsem look like we should be able to merge them? I.e. anywhere we currently grab the master_mutex we could instead grab the rwsem in either write mode (when we change stuff) or read mode (when we just check, like in master_internal_acquire).
