[PATCH] drm/ttm: fix double lock on glob->lru_lock

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

Lock glob->lru_lock is locked before the while loop and also
locked again at the end of the while loop; it appears that the
lock at the end of the while loop is a double lock that should
be removed.  CoverityScan picked this up with the introduction
of the referenced commit inthe Fixes tag, however, it may have
existed before this.  I've not been able to test this, but it
does look incorrect to me.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1268846 ("Double lock")

Fixes: 827ed2b06b05 ("drm/ttm: use try_lock in ttm_bo_delayed_delete again")
