[RFC] drm: return int error code from mode_fixup

When CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is defined, the kernel randomly injects
-EDEADLK errors for all the ww_mutex. This results in
drm_atomic_get_private_obj_state randomly returning -EDEADLK.
However, the mode_fixup functions do not propagate these error
codes and return false, causing the atomic commit to fail with
-EINVAL instead of retrying.

Change encoder, crtc, and bridge mode_fixup functions to return
an int instead of a boolean to indicate success or failure. If
any of these functions fail, the mode_fixup function now returns
the provided integer error code instead of -EINVAL.

This change needs modifications across drivers, but before submitting
the entire change, we want to get feedback on this RFC.
