We already teach lockdep that dma_resv nests within drm_modeset_lock, but there's a lot more: All drm kms ioctl rely on being able to put/get_user while holding modeset locks, so we really need a might_fault in there too to complete the picture. Add it.
Motivated by a syzbot report that blew up on bcachefs doing an unconditional console_lock way deep in the locking hierarchy, and lockdep only noticing the depency loop in a drm ioctl instead of much earlier. This annotation will make sure such issues have a much harder time escaping.
