drm/dp_mst: Fix locking when skipping CSN before topology probing
The handling of the MST Connection Status Notify message is skipped if the probing of the topology is still pending. Acquiring the drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr::probe_lock for this in drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req() is problematic: the task/work this function is called from is also responsible for handling MST down-request replies (in drm_dp_mst_handle_down_rep()). Thus drm_dp_mst_link_probe_work() - holding already probe_lock - could be blocked waiting for an MST down-request reply while drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req() is waiting for probe_lock while processing a CSN message. This leads to the probe work's down-request message timing out. A scenario similar to the above leading to a down-request timeout is handling a CSN message in drm_dp_mst_handle_conn_stat(), holding the probe_lock and sending down-request messages while a second CSN message sent by the sink subsequently is handled by drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req(). Fix the above by moving the logic to skip the CSN handling to drm_dp_mst_process_up_req(). This function is called from a work (separate from the task/work handling new up/down messages), already holding probe_lock. This solves the above timeout issue, since handling of down-request replies won't be blocked by probe_lock.
