[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Fix circular locking in userq creation

A circular locking dependency was detected between the global
`adev->userq_mutex` and per-file `userq_mgr->userq_mutex` when
creating user queues. The issue occurs because:
1. `amdgpu_userq_suspend()`and `amdgpu_userq_resume` take `adev->userq_mutex` first, then
`userq_mgr->userq_mutex`
2. While `amdgpu_userq_create()` takes them in reverse order
This patch resolves the issue by:
1. Moving the `adev->userq_mutex` lock earlier in `amdgpu_userq_create()`
to cover the `amdgpu_userq_ensure_ev_fence()` call
2. Releasing it after we're done with queue creation
3. Maintaining consistent lock ordering (adev->userq_mutex always before
userq_mgr->userq_mutex) in all code paths
