Anyone from amdgpu DC team started to look into this and the subsequent
patches in DC? Note that the last one isn't needed anymore because it's
now fix in upstream with

commit cdaae8371aa9d4ea1648a299b1a75946b9556944

    drm/amd/display: Handle GPU reset for DC block

But that patch has a ton of memory allocations in the reset path now, so
you just replaced one deadlock with another one ...

Note that since amdgpu has it's private atomic_commit_tail implemenation
this won't hold up the generic atomic annotations, but I think it will
hold up the tdr annotations at least. Plus would be nice to fix this
somehow.
