[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 29/38] drm/i915: Remove locking for get_tiling

Since we are not concerned with userspace racing itself with set-tiling
(the order is indeterminant even if we take a lock), then we can safely
read back the single obj->tiling_mode and do the static lookup of
swizzle mode without having to take a lock.

get-tiling is reasonably frequent due to the back-channel passing around
of tiling parameters in DRI2/DRI3.
