I kinda expect this funny locking nesting to upset lockdep, I think we
have a bunch of places where we nest list_iter and modeset locks
differently.

I think the correct nesting is list_iter entirely within the ww_mutex
stuff, which means you'd need to terminate the loop (and remember the
connector), then after list_iter_end do the ww_mutex dance. Of course
that's all assuming CI shows I'm right (hopefully it does since we no
longer reboot, in the past finding these took a few runs until you had the
right test combination to trigger this stuff).

Even if we don't yet have such a case I'd really prefer that list_iter
isn't nested between the acquire_ctx and modeset ww_mutex lockdep
contexts.
