Possible solutions are:

I think the first option is the cleanest. I can put together a patch and
post it soon.
I was thinking about this. These locked API are getting out of control. It could
be a simpler solution to change the mutex type of device_lock such that it can
be locked twice. I think I have seen some examples of how to do this in the
NVMe driver.
