Have you looked at which context this is called in? In a number of
cases, the mask/unmask methods are called whilst you're in an interrupt
context. If you sleep there (which is what happens with a contended
mutex), you die horribly.
Given these constraints, you should use raw_spin_lock_irqsave and co,
since this can be called from both interrupt and non-interrupt contexts.
Thanks,
M.
