This is causing a deadlock for me, too. Since linux-next-20240712 I observe
a hang when starting the gui. I bisected this to commit a13252049629 and
reverting this commit in linux-next-20240712 fixes the issue for me.
I do not have any log messages to prove the dead lock, though, as I compiled
everything without CONFIG_LOCKDEP.

This seems to fix the issue without completely removing the locking.
