I suspect copypasta from the mst private state stuff, which relied on this
lock to protect it. Except your code never bothered to grab that lock (or
any other) so was technically broken until we added generic locking in

    drm/atomic: integrate modeset lock with private objects

Hence this is now ok to drop, originally it wasnt.

Aside: You're single-thread all your atomic updates on the hub->lock,
which might not be what you want. At least updates to separate crtc should
go through in parallel. Usual way to fix this is to add a
tegra_crtc_state->hub_changed that your earlier code sets, and then you
walk the crtc states in the atomic commit (only those, not all, otherwise
you just rebuild that global lock again), and then only grab the hub state
when you need to update something.

Cheers, Daniel
