Subject: [PATCH 1/2] drm/dp: Add ->pre/post_transfer() hooks for drm_dp_aux

Many DRM drivers unfortunately need to be able to access the DP AUX
channel during their suspend/resume callbacks. This leads to an annoying
catch-22: drivers which try to ensure that the DP AUX channel is
initialized and ready may need to runtime-resume the device housing the
channel, which would lead to a deadlock between runtime power management
and drm_dp_aux->hw_mutex.

So: add a simple set of optional hooks that drivers can implement in
order to perform such setup before hw_mutex is locked, then clean up
afterwards. We additionally add the drm_dp_aux_get() and
drm_dp_aux_put() functions so that users of the AUX channel that need to
prepare the AUX channel ahead of time to avoid other kinds of locking
version can do so. We'll need this if we ever want to have a universal
dp_mst_status debugfs node, since dumping the MST topology without
having the AUX channel prepared beforehand would lead to lock inversion.
