We need ww mutexes and need to rewrite i915 a bit fo fix this all. I.e. known issue. As long as your userspace isn't nasty nothing bad will ever happen though.

So do we already have a bug open with a good description of the issue? Eventually the streets will run with blood and we'll enter the 6th republic of i915, so it would be good to have it on the hit list for when the time comes...

I've updated the bug with latest status. -Daniel
