Seems to me that this has been incorporated (or done) in
linux-source-2.6.18.dfsg.1-13etch2 .

That does not seem to have been added to 
linux-source-2.6.18.dfsg.1-13etch2 . I am still not quite sure what
needs lock_kernel(), and anyway my "patch" did not actually solve
anything, so that might be OK.
