From: Dave Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxxxx> I've only seen this once, and I failed to capture the lockdep backtrace, but I did some investigations. If we are calling into the MST layer from EDID probing, we have the mode_config mutex held, if during that EDID probing, the MST hub goes away, then we can get a deadlock where the connector destruction function in the driver tries to retake the mode config mutex. This offloads connector destruction to a workqueue, and avoid the subsequenct lock ordering issue.
