[PATCH 01/12] drm/client: Fully protect modes[] with dev->mode_config.mutex

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

The modes[] array contains pointers to modes on the connectors'
mode lists, which are protected by dev->mode_config.mutex.
Thus we need to extend modes[] the same protection or by the
time we use it the elements may already be pointing to
freed/reused memory.
