The original patch added all the locking to intel_dp_retrain_link. intel_dp_long_pulse is just called from intel_dp_detect, which takes the drm_modeset_lock depending on a valid crtc. I just assumed this is still sufficient, so for this case we don't need to acquire the lock again. If this is not sufficient, we can forward the ctx, state etc. from intel_dp_detect. I didn't check, if these values are the same values that intel_dp_retrain_link collects using different calls.

There is also the "WARN_ON(!drm_modeset_is_locked(&dev_priv->drm.mode_config.connection_mutex));" in intel_dp_long_pulse, which suggests we should also already have the connection_mutex when calling intel_dp_retrain_link later.

All my assumptions are based on reading the original patch and a little bit of the surrounding code.

This patch is just a minimal change, which "works for me". Not sure if all the locking should be moved back to the retrain call sites, to make it more explicit?
