Subject: drm/nouveau: Fix deadlock on runtime suspend

From: Lukas Wunner <lukas@wunner.de>

commit d61a5c1063515e855bedb1b81e20e50b0ac3541e upstream.

nouveau's ->runtime_suspend hook calls drm_kms_helper_poll_disable(),
which waits for the output poll worker to finish if it's running.

The output poll worker meanwhile calls pm_runtime_get_sync() in
nouveau_connector_detect() which waits for the ongoing suspend to finish,
causing a deadlock.

Fix by not acquiring a runtime PM ref if nouveau_connector_detect() is
called in the output poll worker's context.  This is safe because
the poll worker is only enabled while runtime active and we know that
->runtime_suspend waits for it to finish.

Other contexts calling nouveau_connector_detect() do require a runtime
PM ref, these comprise:

  status_store() drm sysfs interface
  ->fill_modes drm callback
  drm_fb_helper_probe_connector_modes()
  drm_mode_getconnector()
  nouveau_connector_hotplug()
  nouveau_display_hpd_work()
  nv17_tv_set_property()
