drm: don't hold crtc mutexes for connector ->detect callbacks
The coup de grace of the entire journey. No more dropped frames every
10s on my testbox!
I've tried to audit all ->detect and ->get_modes callbacks, but things
became a bit fuzzy after trying to piece together the umpteenth
implemenation. Afaict most drivers just have bog-standard output
register frobbing with a notch of i2c edid reading, nothing which
could potentially race with the newly concurrent pageflip/set_cursor
code. The big exception is load-detection code which requires a
running pipe, but radeon/nouveau seem to to this without touching any
state which can be observed from page_flip (e.g. disabled crtcs
temporarily getting enabled and so a pageflip succeeding).</pre>
