Or it acquires it on demand inside it, which means struct mutex will nest inside the mm.lock?Right, it loses the mutex within get/put pages and I am no longer concerned about the number of workers. Though that is mainly because of another patch to improve execbuf + userptr workloads.
Is that other patch before or after this one? Or in a different series altogether? In any case, why should this change be in this patch, especially when it is not commented anywhere?
