[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Cancel delayed work when GFXOFF is disabled

From: Michel Dänzer <mdaenzer at redhat.com>

schedule_delayed_work does not push back the work if it was already
scheduled before, so amdgpu_device_delay_enable_gfx_off ran ~100 ms
after the first time GFXOFF was disabled and re-enabled, even if GFXOFF
was disabled and re-enabled again during those 100 ms.

This resulted in frame drops / stutter with the upcoming mutter 41
release on Navi 14, due to constantly enabling GFXOFF in the HW and
disabling it again (for getting the GPU clock counter).

To fix this, call cancel_delayed_work_sync when GFXOFF transitions from
enabled to disabled. This makes sure the delayed work will be scheduled
as intended in the reverse case.

In order to avoid a deadlock, amdgpu_device_delay_enable_gfx_off needs
to use mutex_trylock instead of mutex_lock.

v2:
* Use cancel_delayed_work_sync & mutex_trylock instead of
  mod_delayed_work.
