This function is like drm_modeset_lock_all(), but it takes the lock
acquisition context as a parameter rather than storing it in the DRM
device's mode_config structure.
Implement drm_modeset_{,un}lock_all() in terms of the new function for
better code reuse, and add a note to the kerneldoc that new code should
use the new functions.
v2: improve kerneldoc
v4: rename drm_modeset_lock_all_crtcs() to drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx()
and take mode_config's .connection_mutex instead of .mutex lock to
avoid lock inversion (Daniel Vetter), use drm_modeset_drop_locks()
which is now the equivalent of drm_modeset_unlock_all_ctx()
v5: do not take the dev->mode_config.connection_mutex in
drm_atomic_legacy_backoff() since drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx()
already keeps it, enhance kerneldoc for drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx()
