With prime, we are running into false circular dependencies based on the
order in which two drivers may lock their own struct_mutex wrt to a
common lock (like the reservation->lock). Work around this by adding the
lock_class_key to the struct drm_driver such that each driver can have
its own subclass of struct_mutex. Circular dependencies between drivers
will now be ignored, but real circular dependencies on any one mutex
will still be caught. A driver creating more than one device will still
need to be careful!
