[Intel-gfx] [PATCH RESEND 15/20] drm/exynos: drop struct_mutex from exynos_drm_gem_get_ioctl

The only things this protects is reading ->flags and ->size, both of
which are invariant over the lifetime of an exynos gem bo. So no
locking needed at all (besides that, nothing protects the writers
anyway).

Aside: exynos_gem_obj->size is redundant with
exynos_gem_obj->base.size and probably should be removed.
