drm/i915: Clarify event_lock locking, irq&mixed context
Now we tackle the functions also called from interrupt handlers. - intel_check_page_flip is exclusively called from irq handlers, so a plain spin_lock is all we need. In i915_irq.c we have the convention to give all such functions an _irq_handler postfix, but that would look strange and als be a bit a misleading name. I've opted for a WARN_ON(!in_irq()) instead. - The other two places left are called both from interrupt handlers and from our reset work, so need the full irqsave dance. Annotate them with a short comment. Reviewed-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
