Subject: drm/vmwgfx: Fix a couple of lock dependency violations
From: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 5151adb37a5918957f4c33a8d8e7629c0fb00563 upstream.
Experimental lockdep annotation added to the TTM lock has unveiled a
couple of lock dependency violations in the vmwgfx driver. In both
cases it turns out that the device_private::reservation_sem is not
needed so the offending code is moved out of that lock.
