    drm/i915: Clarify event_lock locking, process context · 5e2d7afc
    Daniel Vetter authored
    It's good practice to use the more specific versions for irq save
    spinlocks both as executable documentation and to enforce saner
    design. The _irqsave version really should only be used if the calling
    context is unknown and there's a good reason to call a function from
    all kinds of places.
    
    This is the first step whice replaces all occurances of _irqsave in
    process context with the simpler irq disable/enable variants. We don't
    have any funky spinlock nesting going on, especially since the
    event_lock is the outermost of the irq/vblank related spinlocks.
