Subject: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu/dm/dp_mst: Don't grab mst_mgr->lock when computing
DSC state
Now that we've fixed the issue with using the incorrect topology manager,
we're actually grabbing the topology manager's lock - and consequently
deadlocking. Luckily for us though, there's actually nothing in AMD's DSC
state computation code that really should need this lock. The one exception
is the mutex_lock() in dm_dp_mst_is_port_support_mode(), however we grab no
locks beneath &mgr->lock there so that should be fine to leave be.
