I'd rather have the comment replaced with lockdep_assert_held it's a lot
more eloquent.

  I agree if we don't acquire the required lock in the same function,
  but here, we call the required mutex_lock(&orig->device_list_mutex);
  just three lines above in the same function.

  Where do we need the lockdep_assert_held()?
