[PATCH] drm/i915: drop the coditional mutex

[Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>]

mutex_is_locked_by() checks the owner of the lock against current. This
is done by accessing a private member of struct mutex which works on
mainline but does not on RT.
I did not figure out, why this "lock-owner-check" and the "lock stealing
flag" is required. If the lock can not be acquire the lock (because it
would deadlock) then it can return -1.
The lock stealing makes actually no sense to me. If
shrinker_no_lock_stealing is true then the same functions
(i915_gem_purge(), i915_gem_shrink_all()) are called from
i915_gem_object_create_mmap_offset() as from i915_gem_inactive_shrink().
I haven't found a path in which i915_gem_inactive_shrink() is invoked
from i915_gem_object_create_mmap_offset() that means there is no way
shrinker_no_lock_stealing is true _and_ the lock is owned by the current
process.
Since I don't see why the i915 needs this hack while all other user do
not I recommend to remove this hack and return -1 in case of a dead
lock. Here is the patch.
