In general, when a symbol has both locked/unlocked versions, we
use the __symbol for unlocked versions (as the usage of the __symbol
requires the caller do do additional protection).

On this patch, (and on  Sylwester's version) you're seeming to be doing 
just the opposite. That sounds inconsistent with other Kernel symbols.

Please either use that version or add a suffix (like _locked / __unlocked)
to allow a clearer understanding about what's the locked version.

Btw, Does it even make sense to have both options, or wouldn't be better
to just make sure that all drivers will do the same? My concern here is
with race conditions that may happen at device removal, if the lock is
released/retaken inside the routine that unbinds the driver.

Regards,
Mauro
