GIANT question

[Bernd Walter]

Say I have a driver that could run without needing GIANT, but
makes use of a subsystem that requires GIANT.
Removing D_NEEDGIANT in cdevsw seems to be enough to get called
from userland without GIANT held.
Now I need to aquire GIANT bevor calling the subsystem and release
it on return.
What I've found so far is DROP_GIANT/PICKUP_GIANT, which has to be
paired the other way.
What is the prefered way to get/release GIANT in that case?
