[PATCH 6/6] drm/amdgpu: keep the MMU lock until the update ends

I believe this can lead to lock warnings when multiple MMU notifier
pairs are happening at the same time. They're probably harmless, because
read locks are not exclusive. Below is an example I got during process
termination of an HSA process.

Is there some kind of lock annotation that can prevent this message?

Regards,
  Felix
