Subject: [PATCH 3.16 159/217] drm/dp: move hw_mutex up the call stack

3.16.35-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rob Clark <robdclark@...il.com>

commit 7779c5e23c5132c22a219f1f5554ef81dd15ee91 upstream.

1) don't let other threads trying to bang on aux channel interrupt the
defer timeout/logic
2) don't let other threads interrupt the i2c over aux logic

Technically, according to people who actually have the DP spec, this
should not be required.  In practice, it makes some troublesome Dell
monitor (and perhaps others) work, so probably a case of "It's compliant
if it works with windows" on the hw vendor's part..

v2: rebased to come before DPCD/AUX logging patch for easier backport
to stable branches.
