6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 7cce65f3789e04c0f7668a66563e680d81d54493 upstream.
The ast driver protects the commit tail against concurrent reads of the display modes by acquiring a lock. The comment is misleading as the lock is not released in atomic_flush, but at the end of the commit-tail helper. Rewrite the comment.
