drm/probe-helpers: Drop locking from poll_enable
It was only needed to protect the connector_list walking, see commit 8c4ccc4a Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Thu Jul 9 23:44:26 2015 +0200 drm/probe-helper: Grab mode_config.mutex in poll_init/enable Unfortunately the commit message of that patch fails to mention that the new locking check was for the connector_list. But that requirement disappeared in commit c36a3254 Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Thu Dec 15 16:58:43 2016 +0100 drm: Convert all helpers to drm_connector_list_iter and so we can drop this again. This fixes a locking inversion on nouveau, where the rpm code needs to re-enable. But in other places the rpm_get() calls are nested within the big modeset locks. While at it, also improve the kerneldoc for these two functions a notch. v2: Update the kerneldoc even more to explain that these functions can't be called concurrently, or bad things happen (Chris).
