[PATCH v2 4/5] drm/i915/mtl: Add hardware-level lock for steering

Starting with MTL, the driver needs to not only protect the steering
control register from simultaneous software accesses, but also protect
against races with hardware/firmware agents. The hardware provides a
dedicated locking mechanism to support this via the MTL_STEER_SEMAPHORE
register. Reading the register acts as a 'trylock' operation; the read
will return 0x1 if the lock is acquired or 0x0 if something else is
already holding the lock; once acquired, writing 0x1 to the register
will release the lock.
We'll continue to grab the software lock as well, just so lockdep can
track our locking; assuming the hardware lock is behaving properly,
there should never be any contention on the software lock in this case.
v2:
- Extend hardware semaphore timeout and add a taint for CI if it ever
happens (this would imply misbehaving hardware/firmware). (Mika)
- Add "MTL_" prefix to new steering semaphore register. (Mika)
