[28/90] drm/i915: Fixup for Hold mode_config->mutex during hotplug

From: Greg KH
Date: Sun Aug 14 2011 - 12:27:01 EST


3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Keith Packard <keithp@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 40ee3381dd1010432acc13e907329029096c5bfc upstream.

drm_helper_hpd_irq_event queues another work proc to go and deliver
the user-space event, and that function also wants to hold the config
mutex, so we shouldn't hold the mutex across the
drm_helper_hpd_irq_event call.
