Hi Greg,

Do you want to merge this through your console tree or ack for merging
through drm/fbdev? It's part of a bigger series, and I'd like to have more
testing with this in our trees, but also ok to merge stand-alone if you
prefer that. It's just locking checks and some docs.

Same for the preceeding patch in this series here.

Thanks, Daniel
