drm: nest modeset locks within fpriv->fbs_lock



Atm we still need to unconditionally take the modeset locks in the
rmfb paths. But eventually we only want to take them if there are
other users around as a slow-path. This way sane userspace avoids
blocking on edid reads and other stuff in rmfb if it ensures that the
fb isn't used anywhere by a crtc/plane.

We can do a quick check for such other users once framebuffers are
properly refcounting by locking at the refcount - if it's more than 1,
there are other users left. Again, rmfb racing against other ioctls
isn't a real problem, userspace is allowed to shoot its foot.

This patch just prepares this by moving the modeset locks to nest
within fpriv->fbs_lock. Now the distinction between the fbs_lock and
the device-global fb_lock is clear, since we need to hold the fbs_lock
outside of any modeset_locks in fb_release.
