I wanted to limit the critical section to a minimum hence scoped
variant. And this will go away as soon as we have a desc lock so it's
temporary anyway. What matters to me is how the code looks when
sending it to Torvalds. On the off chance that we don't get the
locking rework merged in time for v6.8, I want this to at least be
under the existing lock.
