[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: remove ctx->lock

KMD reports a warning on holding a lock from drm_syncobj_find_fence, 
when running amdgpu_test case “syncobj timeline test”.

ctx->lock was designed to prevent concurrent "amdgpu_ctx_wait_prev_fence" 
calls and avoid dead reservation lock from GPU reset. since no reservation 
lock is held in lates GPU reset any more, ctx->lock can be simply removed 
and concurrent "amdgpu_ctx_wait_prev_fence" call also can be prevented by 
PD root bo reservation lock.

call stacks:
=================
//hold lock
amdgpu_cs_ioctl->amdgpu_cs_parser_init->mutex_lock(&parser->ctx->lock);
…
//report warning
amdgpu_cs_dependencies->amdgpu_cs_process_syncobj_timeline_in_dep \
->amdgpu_syncobj_lookup_and_add_to_sync -> drm_syncobj_find_fence \
-> lockdep_assert_none_held_once
…
amdgpu_cs_ioctl->amdgpu_cs_parser_fini->mutex_unlock(&parser->ctx->lock);
