[PATCH v2] drm/atomic: drm_atomic_private_obj_fini: protect private_obj removal from list

[Luca Ceresoli <luca.ceresoli@bootlin.com>]

Currently drm_bridge_detach() expects that the bridge private_obj is not
locked by a drm_modeset_acquire_ctx, and it warns in case that happens:

  drm_bridge_detach()
  -> drm_atomic_private_obj_fini()
     -> list_del(&obj->head) // removes priv_obj from
                             // dev->mode_config.privobj_list
     -> obj->funcs->atomic_destroy_state()
     -> drm_modeset_lock_fini(&obj->lock)
        -> WARN_ON(!list_empty(&lock->head)) // warn if priv_obj->lock
	                                     // is still in ctx->locked

The expectation is not respected when introducing bridge hot-plugging. In
such case the warning triggers if the bridge is being removed concurrently
to an operation that locks the private object using a
drm_modeset_acquire_ctx, such as in this execution scenario:

  CPU0:
  drm_mode_obj_get_properties_ioctl() // userspace request
  -> DRM_MODESET_LOCK_ALL_BEGIN()
  .  -> drm_for_each_privobj() // loop on dev->mode_config.privobj_list
  .     - lock the privobj mutex
  .	- add priv_obj->lock to ctx->locked
  .	  (list of locks to be released later)
  .
  .                         CPU1:
  .                         drm_bridge_detach() // bridge hot-unplug
  .		            -> WARN triggers!
  .
  -> DRM_MODESET_LOCK_ALL_END()
     -> for each lock in ctx->locked
	- remove priv_obj->lock from ctx->locked
        - unlock the privobj mutex

Fix this by using DRM_MODESET_LOCK_ALL_BEGIN/END() around the list removal
in drm_atomic_private_obj_fini(). This ensures that exactly one of these
happens:

 * the concurrent code (e.g. drm_mode_obj_get_properties_ioctl()) acquires
   all the locks first, so it can execute fully and release the
   privobj->lock before drm_atomic_private_obj_fini() calls list_del() and
   before the WARN_ON()
 * drm_atomic_private_obj_fini() acquires all the locks first, so it
   removes its privobj->lock from the dev->mode_config.privobj_list; the
   concurrent code will run afterwards and not acquire that lock because it
   is not present anymore

This series prevents a race between DRM bridge removal and usage of the
bridge private_obj during DRM_MODESET_LOCK_ALL_BEGIN/END() and other
locking operations.

This is part of the work towards removal of bridges from a still existing
DRM pipeline without use-after-free. The grand plan was discussed in [0].
Here's the work breakdown (➜ marks the current series):

 1. … add refcounting to DRM bridges (struct drm_bridge)
    (based on devm_drm_bridge_alloc() [0])
    A. ✔ add new alloc API and refcounting (v6.16)
    B. ✔ convert all bridge drivers to new API (v6.17)
    C. ✔ kunit tests (v6.17)
    D. ✔ add get/put to drm_bridge_add/remove() + attach/detach()
         and warn on old allocation pattern (v6.17)
    E. … add get/put on drm_bridge accessors
       1. ✔ drm_bridge_chain_get_first_bridge(), add cleanup action (v6.18)
       2. ✔ drm_bridge_get_prev_bridge() (v6.18)
       3. ✔ drm_bridge_get_next_bridge() (v6.19)
       4. ✔ drm_for_each_bridge_in_chain() (v6.19)
       5. ✔ drm_bridge_connector_init (v6.19)
       6. … protect encoder bridge chain with a mutex
       7. of_drm_find_bridge
       8. drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge, *_of_get_bridge
       9. … enforce drm_bridge_add before drm_bridge_attach
    F. ✔ debugfs improvements
       1. ✔ add top-level 'bridges' file (v6.16)
       2. ✔ show refcount and list lingering bridges (v6.19)
 2. ➜ handle gracefully atomic updates during bridge removal
    A. … Add drm_dev_enter/exit() to protect device resources
    B. ➜ protect private_obj removal from list
 3. … DSI host-device driver interaction
 4. ✔ removing the need for the "always-disconnected" connector
 5. finish the hotplug bridge work, moving code to the core and potentially
    removing the hotplug-bridge itself (this needs to be clarified as
    points 1-3 are developed)

The need for this series emerged during testing of DRM bridge
hot-plugging. Very rarely on hot-unplug the following warning has appeared:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 123 at include/drm/drm_modeset_lock.h:114 drm_atomic_private_obj_fini+0x64/0x80
  ...
  Call trace:
   drm_atomic_private_obj_fini+0x64/0x80
   drm_bridge_detach+0x38/0x98

This series depends on:
 * https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/20251014-drm-private-obj-reset-v2-0-6dd60e985e9d@kernel.org
   - dependency on patch 1 only
   - reason: this patch uses the obj->dev introduced by the other series
