Since the breadcrumb enabling/cancelling itself is serialised by the breadcrumbs.irq_lock, with a bit of care we can remove the outer serialisation with i915_request.lock for concurrent dma_fence_enable_signaling(). This has the important side-effect of eliminating the nested i915_request.lock within request submission. The challenge in serialisation is around the unsubmission where we take an active request that wants a breadcrumb on the signaling engine and put it to sleep. We do not want a concurrent dma_fence_enable_signaling() to attach a breadcrumb as we unsubmit, so we must mark the request as no longer active before serialising with the concurrent enable-signaling. On retire, we serialise with the concurrent enable-signaling, but instead of clearing ACTIVE, we mark it as SIGNALED.

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 Restructured Text 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.
