Subject: drm/i915: vlv: reserve GT power context early

commit 17b0c1f7865d8bf4f5e5aa94e2aeafb35d23e4e9 upstream.

We reserve the space for the power context in stolen memory at a fixed
address from a delayed work. This races with the subsequent driver
init/resume code which could allocate something at that address, so the
reservation for the power context fails. Reserve the space up-front, so
this can't happen. This also adds a missing struct_mutex lock around the
stolen allocation, which wasn't taken in the delayed work path.
