In intel_crtc_vblank_work(), we access uapi.event before grabbing the event_lock spinlock, but modify it inside the spinlock block. This causes some static analyzers to get confused and issue a warning. The uapi.event value is not protected by the event_lock, so we can safely move it out of the protected block to prevent false positives.
