We need to serialize streamon/off with queueing new requests. These ioctls may trigger the cancellation of a streaming operation, and that should not be mixed with queuing a new request at the same time. Finally close() needs this lock since that too can trigger the cancellation of a streaming operation. We take the req_queue_mutex here before any other locks since it is a very high-level lock.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
