Are you sure the patch you sent to Andrew is your latest patch
version ? For example I can't found any locks in the patch that
you normally added during the V6 patch version; auxlcddisplay.c
doesn't no exist...

Yes, we are sure. AFAIK there is no need to lock when it is a fbdev.
The older version were "alone" drivers: they needed to lock because
they used fops and they exported functions.
