commit 7ad228b11ec26a820291c9f5a1168d6176580dc1 upstream.
When the pipe A force quirk is applied the code will attempt to grab
a crtc mutex during intel_modeset_setup_hw_state(). If we're already
holding all crtc mutexes this will obviously deadlock every time.
So instead of using drm_modeset_lock_all() just grab the
mode_config.mutex. This is enough to avoid the unlocked mutex warnings
from certain lower level functions.
The regression was introduced in:
