[PATCH v2 03/20] drm/mode-config: Mention drm_mode_config_reset() culprits

[Maxime Ripard]

drm_mode_config_reset() does not reset drm_private_states by design.

This is especially significant for the DP MST and tunneling code that
expect to be preserved across a suspend/resume cycle, where
drm_mode_config_reset() is also used.

Let's document this expectation.
