    locking/mutex, drm: Introduce mutex_trylock_recursive() · 0f5225b0

    By popular DRM demand, introduce mutex_trylock_recursive() to fix up the
    two GEM users.
    
    Without this it is very easy for these drivers to get stuck in
    low-memory situations and trigger OOM. Work is in progress to remove the
    need for this in at least i915.
