You rely on the reservation lock for walking the list when calling
move_notify. So that lock is definitely needed there. If you'd put it in
there then lockdep would splat about locking inversions.
In general dmabuf->lock not being a ww_mutex kinda gets in the way and
just needless complicates the hierarchy. Atm its even outside of the
reservation lock, so anywhere where we expect callers to hold the
reservation lock already we can't take it.
