[PATCH] drm: only take the crtc lock for ->cursor_move

->cursor_move uses mostly the same facilities in drivers as
->cursor_set, so pretty much nothing to fix up:

- ast/gma500/i915: They all use per-crtc registers to update the
  cursor position. ast again touches the global cursor cache, but
  that's ok since there's only one crtc.

- nouveau: nv50+ is again special, updates happen through the per-crtc
  channel (without pushbufs), so it's not protected by the new evo
  lock introduced earlier. But since this channel is per-crtc, we
  should be fine anyway.

- radeon: A bit a mess: avivo asics need a workaround when both output
  pipes are enabled, which means it'll access the crtc list. Just
  reading that flag is ok though as long as radeon _always_ grabs all
  locks when changing the crtc configuration. Which means with the
  current scheme it cannot do an optimized modeset which only locks
  the relevant crtcs. This can be fixed though by introducing a bit of
  global state with separate locks and ensure in the modeset code that
  the cursor will be updated appropriately when enabling the 2nd pipe
  (on affected asics).

- vmwgfx: I still don't understand what it's doing exactly, so apply
  the same trick for now.

v2: Fixup unlocking for the error cases, spotted by Richard Wilbur.
