I looked at this, and even by fbdev locking standards this makes
absolutely no sense to me. I think this should be dropped before we've
reached some sort of conclusion on what is going on, or whether this
is just pure static checker conjecture without fully understanding how
this is supposed to work really.

Sure.

I'll send a new pull request where this patch is dropped.

Thanks!

Just to close this: Turned out to be some kind of static checker dud
(and unfortunately the commit message didn't even explain that it was
found through some undisclosed static checker, I asked the submitter
to rectify this going forward since they'll likely submit more stuff
like this).
