When enabling lockdep debugging on Juno platform with HDLCD and TDA998x
I get the following warning from the system:

This looks like it has been introduced by 'commit 02efac0fbfd5 ("drm/i2c:
tda998x: remove complexity from tda998x_audio_get_eld()")'.

Fix the warning by dropping the use of local audio_mutex and switch to
taking the modeset connection_mutex in tda998x_audio_get_eld() for
avoidance of race conditions with drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes()
updating the ELD data.

v2: Change to taking the modeset connection_mutex rather than changing
the time when audio_mutex lock was taken, as suggested by Russell King.
v3: Drop the bespoke drm_modeset_acquire_ctx, it is not needed.
