[PATCH] i3c: Remove redundant lock in i3c_device_uevent

We encountered the following lockdep warning.
The i3c_master_register function recursively acquires &i3cbus->lock twice,
which may cause a deadlock. 

Remove the logic of obtaining i3cbus->lock when using the i3c_device_uevent
function to obtain the i3c_device_info structure.

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.11.0-mainline
--------------------------------------------
init/1 is trying to acquire lock:
f1ffff80a6a40dc0 (&i3cbus->lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: i3c_bus_normaluse_lock

but task is already holding lock:
f1ffff80a6a40dc0 (&i3cbus->lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: i3c_master_register

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(&i3cbus->lock);
  lock(&i3cbus->lock);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

2 locks held by init/1:
 #0: fcffff809b6798f8 (&dev->mutex){....}-{3:3}, at: __driver_attach
 #1: f1ffff80a6a40dc0 (&i3cbus->lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: i3c_master_register
