This isn't actually protecting anything becuase:
- when running, ttm_resource_manager->use_type is protected through
  vmw_private->reservation_semaphore against concurrent execbuf or
  well anything else that might evict or reserve buffers
- during suspend/resume there's nothing else running, hence
  vmw_pm_freeze and vmw_pm_restore do not need to take the same lock.
- this also holds for the SVGA_REG_ENABLE register write

Hence it is safe to just remove that spinlock.

Hi Roland,

Hopefully you had a nice start into the new year! Ping for some
review/testing on this series.

Thanks, Daniel

Hi,

looking at it, seems alright. Not sure why the lock was supposedly
needed, maybe it was at some point (it seems like all usage of this lock
was introduced way back in 2015, commit 153b3d5b037ee).
