drm/panthor: Take reqs_lock in soft_reset for clearing pending_reqs

This commit adds a missing lock around the clearing of pending_reqs in
panthor_gpu_soft_reset().

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does returning early here permanently wedge
the state machine?

If a hardware timeout occurs, this path returns -ETIMEDOUT and bypasses the
cleanup of pending_reqs. Subsequent calls to panthor_gpu_soft_reset() will
then hit the drm_WARN_ON for GPU_IRQ_RESET_COMPLETED, skip issuing the actual
hardware command, and inevitably time out again.

Similar issues appear to exist in the timeout paths for
panthor_gpu_flush_caches() and panthor_pwr_reset() where early returns
bypass clearing the pending flags.
