[PATCH 3/6] drm: tegra: protect DC register access with mutex

OK, you add a mutex in a tegra_dc structure. But I think there is no
parallel scenario while we operate on a dc. AFAIK, the functions which
you add mutex protection are called by drm sequentially(except for
function "tegra_crtc_load_lut" I'm not very clear about that).

So could you give us an example?
