- Modeset state needs mode_config->connection mutex, that covers
figuring out the encoder, and reading properties (since in the
atomic case those need to look at connector->state).
- Don't hold any locks for stuff that's invariant (i.e. possible
connectors).
- Same for connector lookup and unref, those don't need any locks.
- And finally the probe stuff is only protected by mode_config->mutex.
While at it updated the kerneldoc for these fields in drm_connector
and add docs explaining what's protected by which locks.
