Convert most mutex_(un)lock calls to use (scoped_)guard instead. This generally reduces line count and prevents bugs like forgetting to unlock the mutex. I've left traditional calls in a few places where scoped helpers would be more verbose. This mostly happens where debugfs_file_put needs to be called regardless. I looked into defining a CLASS for debugfs_file, but it seems like more effort than it's worth since debugfs_file_get can fail.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
