[PATCH 09/52] drm/i915/gvt: Stop waiting whilst holding struct_mutex

For whatever reason, the gvt scheduler runs synchronously. At the very
least, lets run synchronously without holding the struct_mutex.

v2: cut'n'paste mutex_lock instead of unlock.
Replace long hold of struct_mutex with a mutex to serialise the worker
threads.
