So if I stick this on top of:

  https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241011121535.28049-1-przemyslaw.kitszel@xxxxxxxxx

then I can add the below:

That make sense to people?

I've queued these two patches:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/peterz/queue.git locking/core

But lacking if_not_guard() users, the robot isn't really going to give
me much feedback there, I suppose...
