I disagree for the oops case.  You want the simplest possible code
here.

If that's true for real time , should be true for mainline right?

You mean it shouldn't use lockdep etc. there? Yes good point. I can change 
that

Yes, the oops code path should be as decoupled as possible. We want to
know what happened in the first place and not what consequential damage
is caused by the initial problem.
