x86/thermal: AB-BA dependency between mvm->mutex and tz->lock

From: Jiri Kosina

Hi,

booting current Linus' tree, I'm seeing lockdep splat (see the end of this
mail).

Apparently, there is AB-BA between tz->lock and mvm->mutex through the CPU
hotplug lock.

The obivous depency is: thermal_zone_get_temp() acquires tz->lock, and
then calls iwl_mvm_tzone_get_temp() (through tz->ops->get_temp()
callback), which acquires mvm->mutex

The less obvious dependency is primarily caused by iwl_op_mode_mvm_start()
allocating workqueue (#2 stacktrace) while holding mvm->mutex (which is
broken, because that mutex is being taken also from CPU hotplug callback
path, hence the AB-BA).

but task is already holding lock:

which lock already depends on the new lock.
