I instrumented my kernel to printk in aux_write_dev, and it seems to be only called when the x server is started or when you switch into the x server console. Console switch is very expensive latency wise anyways, so maybe it is not a too big problem (``don't do that'')
I still would prefer to use better locking because such a long spinlock is just bad style.
