[BUG] Circular locking dependency - DRM/CMA/MM/hotplug/...

The cubox-i4 just hit a new lockdep problem - not quite sure what to
make of this - it looks like an interaction between quite a lot of
locks - I suspect more than the lockdep code is reporting in its
"Possible unsafe locking scenario" report.

I'm hoping I've sent this to appropriate people...  if anyone thinks
this needs to go to someone else, please forward it.  Thanks.

-------------------------------------------------------
Xorg/805 is trying to acquire lock:
 (cma_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c03716f4>] dma_release_from_contiguous+0xb8/0xf8

but task is already holding lock:
 (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+...}, at: [<c03512ec>] drm_gem_object_handle_unreference_unlocked+0xdc/0x148

which lock already depends on the new lock.
