Since all users of gem.gpuva.lock_dep_map now rely on the mutex directly in gpuva, we may remove it. Whether the mutex is used is now tracked by a flag in gpuvm rather than by whether lock_dep_map is null. Note that a GEM object may not be pushed to multiple gpuvms that disagree on the value of this new flag. But that's okay because a single driver should use the same locking scheme everywhere, and a GEM object is driver specific (when a GEM is exported with prime, a new GEM object instance is created from the backing dma-buf). The flag is present even with CONFIG_LOCKDEP=n because the intent is that the flag will also cause vm_bo cleanup to become deferred. However, that will happen in a follow-up patch.

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.
