/**
 * drm_panic_trylock - try to enter the panic printing critical section
 * @dev: struct drm_device
 * @flags: unsigned long irq flags you need to pass to the unlock() counterpart
 *
 * This function must be called by any panic printing code. The panic printing
 * attempt must be aborted if the trylock fails.
 *
 * Panic printing code can make the following assumptions while holding the
 * panic lock:
 *
 * - Anything protected by drm_panic_lock() and drm_panic_unlock() pairs is safe
 *   to access.
 *
 * - Furthermore the panic printing code only registers in drm_dev_unregister()
 *   and gets removed in drm_dev_unregister(). This allows the panic code to
 *   safely access any state which is invariant in between these two function
 *   calls, like the list of planes &drm_mode_config.plane_list or most of the
 *   struct drm_plane structure.
 *
 * Specifically thanks to the protection around plane updates in
 * drm_atomic_helper_swap_state() the following additional guarantees hold:
 *
 * - It is safe to deference the drm_plane.state pointer.
 *
 * - Anything in struct drm_plane_state or the driver's subclass thereof which
 *   stays invariant after the atomic check code has finished is safe to access.
 *   Specifically this includes the reference counted pointers to framebuffer
 *   and buffer objects.
 *
 * - Anything set up by &drm_plane_helper_funcs.fb_prepare and cleaned up
 *   &drm_plane_helper_funcs.fb_cleanup is safe to access, as long as it stays
 *   invariant between these two calls. This also means that for drivers using
 *   dynamic buffer management the framebuffer is pinned, and therefer all
 *   relevant datastructures can be accessed without taking any further locks
 *   (which would be impossible in panic context anyway).
 *
 * - Importantly, software and hardware state set up by
 *   &drm_plane_helper_funcs.begin_fb_access and
 *   &drm_plane_helper_funcs.end_fb_access is not safe to access.
 *
 * Drivers must not make any assumptions about the actual state of the hardware,
 * unless they explicitly protected these hardware access with drm_panic_lock()
 * and drm_panic_unlock().
 *
 * Return:
 * %0 when failing to acquire the raw spinlock, nonzero on success.

/**

 *
 * This function must be called to protect software and hardware state that the
 * panic printing code must be able to rely on. The protected sections must be
 * as small as possible. It uses the irqsave/irqrestore variant, and can be
 * called from irq handler. Examples include:
 *
 * - Access to peek/poke or other similar registers, if that is the way the
 *   driver prints the pixels into the scanout buffer at panic time.
 *
 * - Updates to pointers like &drm_plane.state, allowing the panic handler to
 *   safely deference these. This is done in drm_atomic_helper_swap_state().
 *
 * - An state that isn't invariant and that the driver must be able to access
 *   during panic printing.
