#ifdef CONFIG_LOCKDEP
WARN_ON_ONCE(debug_locks && !(lockdep_is_held(&drm_device.master_mutex) ||
lockdep_is_held(&drm_file.master_lookup_lock)));
#endif

doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, but should do as you want I
suppose.

Would something like:

#define lockdep_assert(cond) WARN_ON_ONCE(debug_locks && !(cond))

Such that we can write:

lockdep_assert(lockdep_is_held(&drm_device.master_mutex) ||
lockdep_is_held(&drm_file.master_lookup_lock));

make it better ?

Subject: locking/lockdep: Provide lockdep_assert{,_once}() helpers

Extract lockdep_assert{,_once}() helpers to more easily write composite
assertions like, for example:

lockdep_assert(lockdep_is_held(&drm_device.master_mutex) ||
lockdep_is_held(&drm_file.master_lookup_lock));
