Subject: [PATCH] drm/sched: Fix race in drm_sched_entity_select_rq()

In a past bug fix it was forgotten that entity access must be protected
by the entity lock. That's a data race and potentially UB.

Move the spin_unlock() to the appropriate position.

Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # v5.13+
Fixes: ac4eb83ab255 ("drm/sched: select new rq even if there is only one v3")
