From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala at linux.intel.com>

We have a struct_mutex deadlock during driver init on ILK

    drm/i915: move getting struct_mutex lower in the callstack during GPU reset

Fix the problem by not taking struct_mutex around intel_enable_gt_powersave()
in intel_modeset_init_hw() since intel_enable_gt_powersave() now grabs the
mutex itself.
