Properties, i.e. the struct drm_property specifying the type and value range of a property, not the instantiation on a given object, are invariant over the lifetime of a driver. Hence no locking at all is needed, we can just remove it. While at it give the function some love and simplify it, to get it under the 80 char limit: - Straighten the loops to reduce the nesting. - use u64_to_user_ptr casting helper - use put_user for fixed u64 copies. Note there's a small behavioural change in that we now copy parts of the values to userspace if the arrays are a bit too small. Since userspace will immediately retry anyway, this doesn't matter.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
