I didn't understand your idea. You want to replace the whole FBC mutex
for a spinlock? Why?

Please notice that we have dev_priv->fbc.busy_bits and also
dev_priv->fb_tracking.busy_bits. The FBC busy bits are only handled in
the intel_fbc.c functions. So maybe you want the spilock around the
fb_tracking ones? That wouldn't require changing the FBC mutex to a
spinlock, and it could be done today.
