[PATCH] drm/ast: Fix soft lockup

[黃立銘]

Hi Thomas and Jocelyn,

What we do in ast_dp_set_on_off() is a handshake between host driver and
bmc-fw to confirm
the operation, on/off, is completed.

We use some scratch registers in bmc to handshake with host. This handshake
only work if
BMC's scu-lock is opened. If scu-lock is opened too late, then it could
lead to this issue.

Best regards
Jammy
