[PATCH v9 36/61] drm/vc4: hdmi: Propagate -EDEADLK to the top level

[Cristian Ciocaltea]

drm_connector_helper_funcs.detect_ctx() is expected to propagate
-EDEADLK so that context owners, e.g. drm_helper_probe_detect_ctx(), can
perform the required backoff and retry.

vc4_hdmi_handle_hotplug() instead runs its own retry loop and calls
drm_modeset_backoff() on an acquire context it does not own.  This drops
all locks in the context, including connection_mutex held by the core.

Drop the local retry logic and propagate -EDEADLK to the caller instead.
This aligns VC4 with the expected detect_ctx() semantics.
